...and it lacks the wealth of modules that CPAN offers.
Please note that XML::LibXSLT, the XSLT companion to XML::LibXML offers the "register_function" functionality which allows Perl functions to be called from stylesheets. An example (directly from the XML::LibXSLT documentation): and then later in a XSLT stylesheet:
This implies that CPAN modules can be made available at least in stylesheets using XML::LibXSLT. I've used this approach for a client, who is now running about 40 syndicated websites out of a single database in production using this approach. Even the associated CMS is using XML::LibXSLT with special custom functions for handling forms and updating the underlying database. Typical modules that I've made available that way (directly or indirectly) are DBI, LWP::UserAgent, POSIX, Digest::MD5, Email::Valid, Time::ParseDate, etc. etc. etc. Liz
