This package provides modules to do 3D graphics in PDL.

Apache SpamAssassin is an anti-spam platform giving system administrators a filter to classify email and block spam (unsolicited bulk email). It uses a robust scoring framework and plug-ins to integrate a wide range of advanced heuristic and statistical analysis tests on email headers and body text including text analysis, Bayesian filtering, DNS blocklists, and collaborative filtering databases.

The Perl module Geo::IP looks up location and network information by IP Address.

Back in the early days of the web, many people learned Perl because of a wonderful Perl library called CGI. It was simple enough to get started without knowing much about the language and powerful enough to keep you going, learning by doing was much fun. While most of the techniques used are outdated now, the idea behind it is not. Mojolicious is a new endeavor to implement this idea using modern technologies.

This package provides a client library for Vipul's Razor. Vipul's Razor is a distributed, collaborative, spam detection and filtering network. Through user contribution, Razor establishes a distributed and constantly updating catalogue of spam in propagation that is consulted by email clients to filter out known spam. Detection is done with statistical and randomized signatures that efficiently spot mutating spam content. User input is validated through reputation assignments based on consensus on report and revoke assertions which in turn is used for computing confidence values associated with individual signatures.

This package provides an old GeoIP database in the legacy .dat format. The data was collected before MaxMind changed the license and format of their databases. It is intended only as a compatibility package for SpamAssassin.

Package extracted from SOAP::Lite. Slightly modified to work on multiple platforms.
