AnyEvent provides an identical interface to multiple event loops. This allows module authors to utilize an event loop without forcing module users to use the same event loop (as only a single event loop can coexist peacefully at any one time). The interface itself is vaguely similar but not identical to the Event module. On the first call of any method, the module tries to detect the currently loaded event loop by probing for an already-loaded event loop, such as Glib or Event. The first one found is used. If none is found, the module tries to load an event module, and failing that, it will fall back to an optimized pure Perl implementation.

Coro is a package providing both low-level coroutines as well as a high-level multitasking abstraction on top of Perl. It allows you to parallelize LWP and other network protocols with ease. Unlike the so-called "Perl threads/fork emulation", they provide a real shared address space (like real threads) without the associated race conditions and performance loss, while maintaining a very low memory overhead (2-3kb/coroutine). The package comes with examples and many supporting modules.

Deliantra is a client for Deliantra game servers. It offers an intuitive user interface for exploring the vast game world, a persistent minimap, powerful macros and keymaps, dialog-based NPC interaction, and easy configuration for the skill, spell, and item system. It is based on Perl, SDL, and OpenGL for high performance on modern systems, and works on both Unix and Windows. Ports to other platforms should be very easy and are underway.

Deliantra is an advancement of the crossfire multi-user RPG game. Unlike the original project, it focuses mainly on stability and playability, but also adds modern technology such as map scripting, Perl server extensions, asynchronous I/O, higher resolution graphics, and better client support.

GNU VPE creates a virtual ethernet by creating host-to-host tunnels between multiple endpoints. Unlike other virtual private "network" solutions which merely create a single tunnel, it creates a real network with multiple endpoints. It is designed to be conceptually simple and straightforward to setup (assuming prior IP routing knowledge) without sacrificing flexibility. It is designed to sit on the gateway machines of company branches to connect them, but it can also be used to tunnel into a VPN with a variety of protocols (RAW IP, ICMP, UDP, TCP, HTTPS-Proxy, DNS).

gtkbfc (GTK+ bash file chooser) is a hack that replaces the slow and hard-to-use GTK+ file chooser with an rxvt-unicode window that runs a little script that lets you use readline (and tab-completion) to enter filenames.

IO::AIO implements fully asynchronous I/O (not non-blocking I/O) that lets your program stay in control and interactive even when doing heavy disk (or other) I/O. It provides asynchronous versions of read(), write(), open(), stat(), unlink(), rename(), utime(), readlink(), and most other standard syscalls as well as interfaces to sendfile(), readahead(), and other esoteric syscalls, complete with emulation on systems that don't support them. It also offers convenience functions to load whole files and more. It fits naturally into any event loop model, supports 9 priorities and request grouping.

JSON::XS implements JSON for Perl. Unlike other modules, its primary goal is to encode to syntactically correct JSON and flag invalid JSON while decoding. It ensures round-trip integrity of data types while being intuitive to use. Currently being the fastest of the JSON encoders available for Perl, it supports a variety of format options, such as single-line, ASCII-only, or pretty-printed, and can be tuned for speed or memory usage. It comes with a wealth of documentation describing usage and implementation details.

KGSSueMe aims to provide a sample implementation of a client for the popular Kiseido Go Server. The project stresses documenting the protocol by giving developers code, so that they can write their own clients, rather than to provide a featureful client.
