Re^2: What modules should be added to the corelist?by Anonymous Monk |

CGI was dropped from the core not only because it wasn't needed there, but because keeping it seemed like an endorsement of an antiquated programming model.
The CGI module is a GUI toolkit for web apps. It was added to the core because the web is important. Dropping it, as the web's relevance grows, makes sense to me. No not really. I would keep that for full backcompat, and add something like Mojolicious::Lite for modern web apps. :-)
