Re: [cgiapp] CGI::Session

[Cees Hek <suppressed>]

The main problem people were having had to do with using CGI::Simple
and CGI::Session together.  It looks like the issues have been fixed
in CGI::Session [1], so that any module that has a param and cookie
method that works like CGI.pm will work properly.

Good news, as that means I can remove the custom fix I added to
CAP::Session specifically for this problem...

Cheers,

Cees
