Hello,

Version 0.15 of nsapi_perl/Netscape::Server has been added to the
CPAN.  It is available as:
  file: $CPAN/authors/id/BSUGARS/nsapi_perl-0.15.tar.gz
  size: 37343 bytes
   md5: d70bdc6ad7272ffb5165d37d913e1c5f

nsapi_perl is a set of Netscape Server API functions and Perl
extension modules that (in the spirit of mod_perl for Apache) embed a
Perl interpreter in a Netscape web server.  This allows you to program
to the Netscape server API in Perl rather than C.

Changes since version 0.10:

    -Added the module Netscape::Registry.  This module is similar in
    concept and execution to Apache::Registry: it runs Perl CGI
    programs from within the server process offering large
    performance gains.

    -Added the module Netscape::Server::Socket. Its primary role is
    for use with Netscape::Registry.

    -Added the net_read() method to Netscape::Server::Session.

    -Various bug fixes.

Please note that this software is very much under development.  It is
probably of most interest to those wishing to contribute to the
project.

-Ben
