I must thank Brian Ingerson for assisting me in the early development of the 

book. Scott Guelich, author of CGI Programming with Perl, also deserves special 

mention his early encouragement was crucial to getting the project off the 

ground. Finally, I would like to thank Leon Brocard for allowing me to use his 

CPAN network illustration, a version of which appears in Chapter 1.
