Brothers and Sisters in Perl I beg your indulgence

I am looking at using "Common Base Events" (CBEs from now on) as specified in theCannonical Situation Data Format to interface all sorts of data sources (Java, Logfiles, Tivoli ITM etc) and data sinks (Tivoli Enterprise Console, SAS, Data Warehouse). As far as I can find there is no work done in Perl to create, verify, store, forward, translate CBEs though IBM and Eclipse have done plenty of work in Java.

• Does anyone know of any existing work in Perl
• Is anyone interested in my work if I create a module for these events
• Anyone out there used CBEs and can advise me on the sanity of my interface

Cheers,
R.
