I guess so; I haven't actually supported it or even used Perl for anything serious in close to five years now. I seem to remember hearing that they were going to purge code that hadn't been updated in a while at some point, so that's likely what happened. 

Sorry about that. If you (or anyone else) wants to resurrect it and maintain it, I'd be happy to transfer it to them.
