Just in case anyone is interested in seeing my pet project...

http://wol.dereth.ac/

This is an allegiance website for the MMORPG Asheron's Call that I've been playing for a few years now (Leafcull server if anyone here plays AC).

The site runs on two engines, the bottom engine is called PML which allows direct perl statements as well as control statements to be embedded into HTML documents. On top of PML is the RBCB engine which is created in PML.

The entire engine is API driven, so it's very manageable and makes for very easy to read code. The site above is actually the primary site as there are nine other sites running on the server, as clones of the url above. Each site has thier own database, but the actual code being run is the same for each site.

Currently the engine uses Apache 1.x and mod_perl, I hope to eventually port it to Apache 2 with mod_perl and threads. :)

Just thought I'd show you all what I'm up to in the world of creating web-based communities. My future plans for the engine include a fully featured events calendar, proper skinning, a WikiWiki system and more! :)
