| Games-Sokoban | A perl module to load/transform/save sokoban levels in various formats. |
| Geo-LatLon2Place | This is a single-purpose module that tries to do one job: find the nearest placename for a point on earth. It doesn't claim to do a perfect job, but it tries to be simple to set up, simple to use and be fast. It doesn't attempt to provide many features or nifty algorithms, and is meant to be used in situations where you simply need a name for a coordinate without becoming a GIS expert first. |
| Glib-EV | This perl module patches the default libglib main loop context to use the EV module. This makes it possible to use callbacks or modules using the EV module within Glib and Gtk2 programs. Just loading it suffices. See the EV::Glib module for the reverse approach. |
| Glib-Event | This perl module patches the default libglib main loop context to use the Event module. This makes it possible to use callbacks or modules using the Event module within Glib and Gtk2 programs. Just loading it suffices. |

| gvpe | GVPE creates a virtual ethernet network with multiple nodes using a variety of transport protocols. Participating nodes do not need to trust each other. |
| IO-AIO | A Perl module that implements asynchronous I/O using pthreads. Apart from AIO reading and writing, this module also allows asynchronous stat, open, unlink (and more) calls, which often are a substantial blocking problem. See also its (outdated) brother Linux-AIO. |
| IO-FDPass | Pass a file descriptor over a socket. |
| JSON-XS | JSON::XS implements JSON (http://www.json.org) 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 datatypes 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. |

| Linux-AIO | A Perl module that implements asynchronous I/O using clone on Linux. Apart from AIO reading and writing, this module also allows asynchronous stat, open and close (and more) calls, which often are a substantial problem. See also its (newer) brother IO-AIO. |
| Linux-Clone | A Perl interface to the clone(2) and unshare(2) syscalls. |
| Linux-DVB | A perl module that implements a very direct interface to the Linux DVB API. Also contains utility functions to decode SI data. |

| OpenCL | An interface to OpenCL (the Open Computing Language) for Perl. |
| OpenSSL | Undocumented, unreleased and unfinished-but-somewhat-working Perl module interfacing to libssl. |
| PApp-SQL | Absolutely easy yet fast and powerful SQL access. |
| pbcdedit | This is "a small hack grown properly out of proportion" that implements a portable version of the Microsoft Windows BCDEDIT program. It is pretty unique in that it does run on non-windows platforms, can create BCD hives from scratch and parses and edits BCD device elements. it is also self-contained and only needs a perl 5.16 (or above) installation. |
| PDL-Audio | Perl module extending PDL with all sorts of audio functions for generating, analyzing, loading and saving sounds. Ever so popular is the "birds" demo script :) |
| Proc-FastSpawn | fork+exec, or spawn, a subprocess as quickly as possible |

| Tree-M | Perl interface to the broken M-Tree library by these italian guys... |
| Types-Serialiser | This module is an utility module that provides a few simple datatypes, constants and a serialisation protocol for CBOR::XS. It could be used for other, similar, serialisation modules (such as JSON::XS), and would improve interoperability between those modules. |
| Urlader | A self-unpacking archive that can be used for program deployment and upgrades. |
