A new module has been born on CPAN. This module does not use WWW:Mechanize since that's a no-go on my server.

Hints, tips, questions or suggestions?
Feel free and shoot!

Any reason we should avoid WWW::Mechanize? Security thread and whatnot?? If i recall correctly, there are a bunch of Python/Perl modules built on top of WWW:Mechanize.

oops, i just noticed my typo: i meant security threaT, instead of threaD.

The Mechanize code base is used by several Python/Perl modules so I was wondering why it is being frowned upon.

It uses a lot of dependencies which just don't always work and uses a lot more resources for which it is useful for.
I'd rather use the IO:All module over the WWW:Mechanize if the verification would have required more.

WWW:Mechanize has its good points but it is way out of context for a simple server text-based validation.
