Hello from Venezuela

About the intention to eliminate LaTeX, I think, you can have
something like templates in XML or DocBook, and then convert to other
formats, including LaTeX. In fact, one of the features that I like is
that I can make invoices in LaTeX.

A few years ago, talked with a partner to migrate the first leg of the
CGI-oriented code in SQL-Ledger to Catalyst, they are not like the
idea of bringing the CGI code to Catalyst Framework?

You could also use HTML:: FormFu to the forms.

On the view, I think it would be nice to use jQuery, I'm a fan of jQuery.

Additionally, add support for LDAP authentication and roles is easy
with Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Store::LDAP

A hug.
