About:
The Perl HL7 Toolkit provides a simple but flexible Perl toolkit for using the HL7 protocol. The toolkit consists of a Perl API for manipulating HL7 messages, an implementation of a pluggable forking HL7 server for developing HL7 capable applications in Perl, and a queue daemon for polling non-HL7 queues, like database, filesystems, etc., and translating messages in these queues into HL7 (and vice-versa).

[»] What is HL7?

You might want to explain what HL7 is. Is it some sort of API for Medical apps? (searching on Google gives some hits for that). It doesn't say on your site either.

Will do (on the project site). But then again, people who don't know what it is, couldn't use it anyway.

HL7 is an ANSI standard which stands for Health Level 7; the 7 refers to its position in the OSI layer model, i.e. the Application layer. The language itself provides a standard for communication between clinical applications (electronic medical records, practice management systems, laboratory systems, etc.). For more info, see http://www.hl7.org. If you don't know what it is, you probably have no use for it; as someone in Health Care IT though, I have to say.. what a great project! Keep up the good work!
