Why are you posting this to use.perl? (Score:3, Funny)
Which also stores usernames and passwords in plain text in a cookie? Well, obfuscated, at least as much as basic-auth is...
Quite shocked me when I looked closely at my slashdot / use.perl cookies.

I post it to use.perl.org for the same reason others post post plenty of other non-Perl things here: it interests me.
The comment about the use.perl cookie was interesting. I had suspicions about the cookie, but never looked at it that closely. If you really want fun, though, take a look at the full headers. You'll see things like: X-Bender: My full name is Bender Bending Rodriguez. and X-Fry: Hey look, it's that guy you are! .

As to the headers, I love 'em. First saw them on slashdot, and I'm thinking about adding something similiar to my latest project now...
