    As Matt suggested (and you concurred) this is more an application than
    a module. I suggest you look at the Content Management Systems like
    plone (my personal favorite). Plone is Zope and therefore python based
    while you'ld probably prefer perl but, the functionality is so high you
    may find it adequate.

    A quick google search (i.e. perl cms) found several options of which
    http://www.callistocms.com/ looked the most viable to me (but nowhere near
    as mature as plone).

    You could also consider wiki or blog applications but, they're less
    geared towards approval of content. See everything2 and livejournal.

    We wouldn't need tax laws if everyone was like your
    mother, because open barrals at town hall would be
    adequate to collect the necessary funds.
