e107 is a content management system written in PHP and using the
popular open source MySQL database system for content storage.
It's completely free, totally customisable and in constant development.
eFront is an easy to use, visually attractive, SCORM compatible, eLearning
and Human Capital Development system.
SpeedyCGI is a way to run CGI perl scripts persistently, which usually
makes them run much more quickly. A script can be converted to
SpeedyCGI by changing the interpreter line at the top of the
script. After the script is initially run, instead of exiting,
SpeedyCGI keeps the perl interpreter running. During subsequent runs,
this interpreter is used to handle new requests instead of starting a
new perl interpreter for each execution.
ClearSilver is a fast, powerful, and language-neutral template system. It is
designed to make it easy to create template driven static or dynamic
websites.
This port installs the ClearSilver Perl bindings.

Products
Gallery is also the name of the main product, an online photo album organizer.
Gallery gives you an intuitive way to blend photo management seamlessly into
your own website whether you're running a small personal site or a large
community site.
GLPI is an Information Resource-Manager with an additional
Administration- Interface. You can use it to build up a
database with an inventory for your company (computer,
software, printers...). It has enhanced functions to make
the daily life for the administrators easier, like a job-
tracking-system with mail-notification and methods to build
a database with basic information about your network-topology.
igal2 (the successor of igal) is a quick and easy program for placing
your images online with just one command-line. It generates a pretty
good-looking set of W3-compliant static HTML slides even with its
default settings. The slide show preloads the next image with
JavaScript - ideal for slower links.
ikiwiki is a wiki compiler. It converts wiki pages into html pages
suitable for publishing on a website. Unlike many wikis, ikiwiki does
not have its own ad-hoc means of storing page history, and instead
uses a revision control system (currently supported is bzr, git,
mercurial, monotone, subversion and tla).
There are many other features, including support for blogging, as well
as a large array of plugins.
CMSMS makes it easy to set up a site and then hand it
over to non-techies to maintain. Unlike other CMS
packages, it isn't over-complex, and it isn't just for
blogs. The drop-down site navigation menus are the
icing on the cake: just so easy to use. There's an
excellent support forum too.
Mason is a tool for building, serving and managing large web sites. Its features
make it an ideal backend for high load sites serving dynamic content, such as
online newspapers or database driven e-commerce sites.
Mason's various pieces revolve around the notion of "components". A component is
a mix of HTML, Perl, and special Mason commands, one component per file.
So-called "top-level" components represent entire web-pages, while smaller
components typically return HTML snippets for embedding in top-level components.
This object-like architecture greatly simplifies site maintenance: change a
shared component, and you instantly changed all dependant pages that refer to it
across a site (or across many virtual sites).
Mason's component syntax lets designers separate a web page into programmatic
and design elements. This means the esoteric Perl bits can be hidden near the
bottom of a component, preloading simple variables for use above in the HTML. In
our own experience, this frees content managers (i.e., non-programmers) to work
on the layout without getting mired in programming details. Techies, however,
still enjoy the full power of Perl.
