Project Purpose and Summarization
I am writing a perl web site content management system based loosely on 
phpWebSite and inspired in part by bugzilla. The initial impetus to considering 
taking this on was an ISP that could not provide me with the databases that I 
needed for various web site projects. The driving force behind writing code 
that others could share and improve was the realization that many out there are 
probably in the same boat as I - limitied ISP resources - and might be greatly 
relieved to learn that there was already a solution to their problem availible 
for free.

This product will not require that the user know perl, only that they know how 
to setup a configuration file. However, this project will include a new perl 
module that will generate site theme and content from the data in the config 
file.  The module will not only be a wrapper for the many modules which the 
project comprises, but also a collection of useful and unique functions for 
generating the site. It will enable those with the interest or experience to 
reach beyond the config file, dive more deeply into the guts of the code, and 
create new and interesting permutations.

It does not exist yet but I\'m working on it. I have test code for the various 
parts, but not a release.
