[Catalyst] RFC: New to Catalyst questions

[Devin Austin]

Well, people are going to want to know how Catalyst compares to *ahem*
others as far as AJAX goes, certainly REST, and app servers like nginx,
lighttpd, etc.

Also, best practices.  Walking beginning to end on an app is great, but a
lot of the newbies end up having to throw away a lot of their newly acquired
knowledge for what *should* be done.

Perhaps best practices is best left for a thread on its own, but I think it
should somehow be addressed.

How about how Catalyst interacts with caching components/technologies? I'm
just trying to think of production level necessities that we'll want to
advertise to newcomers/defectors.

Any of these sound legitimate?
