Just found this announcement on openwsman-discuss:
"Starting with VMware's VIPerl Toolkit v1.5, an experimental version of Perl WS-Management library is included for infrastructure management with Web Services. The library currently supports 7 out of the 11 generic operations described in the WS-Management - CIM Binding.
The library is available for download at http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/
and the documentation for the Perl WS-Management library can be found at:
http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/viperltoolkit/viperl15/doc/technoteWSmgmt.pdf
The library is completely written in Perl and tested with the help of Openwsman"
Lets see how this compares against the openwsman language bindings ...
