Sloop uses a custom installer over top of reasonably normal perl build practices; more information is in the README.txt. The modules, which are unlikely to be useful outside of a Sloop context, are all distributed together here rather than via CPAN. It only has a few trivial perl dependencies, as it does not use existing modules for HTTP parsing, or even TCP/IP (again there is more in the README).

Note that Sloop is not portable. It uses a linux only system call, epoll().
