asterisk users - Feb 2008 - "Real" API for Perl?

Hi, all.  I've used the perl/AGI interface, and... well, I found it kind
of hokey.  Granted, this was in 1.2 days -- perhaps things have changed. 
Regardless, I guess I have two questions:
1) Has the Perl/AGI "binding" improved since then?
2) Is there any chance of a "real" API for Perl?

Thanks much!

-Ken

What is your criterion of "real"?  That is to say, what do you need
that
it does not provide?

I've used AGI and FastAGI in Perl extensively and it is yet to fail to 
serve my purposes.

I have 3 phones connected to 2 servers behind a 54g running openwrt  
with no stun or any special configuration. I am running cisco phones  
which do nat well natively.

Greg,

Without STUN how are the phones able to register? I was unable to get the 
Grandstream phones to work at all without STUN.

I have nat on in sip.conf and off on the phones.  Works perfect for  
7960/1 and 7971.  When I get back home, I will login to the asterisk  
servers and tell you what IPs the registration requests have in
them.
