Description: The Solstice framework is a new MVC-oriented web development framework for mod_perl. Stressing scalability, embedability of application components, and a state-machine driven navigation model, Solstice provides some new approaches to creating Perl web applications. Developed by a group at the University of Washington, this system has allowed our four developers to create and maintain 8 campus-wide applications in two years. We intend to introduce the strengths and features of Solstice as well as do a quick demo of the development process.
