The OpenGuides system is free software, written in Perl. It is available for download from the CPAN. To see what's new in the latest version, see the release notes.
To run OpenGuides, you will need a webserver capable of running Perl, and a number of Perl modules as prerequisites, all of which are also available from the CPAN. We recommend installing OpenGuides via CPAN.pm or the newer CPANPLUS.pm, as these will handle the installation of prerequisites for you. Alternatively, if you run a Debian system, you can install OpenGuides with "apt". Full details and packages are available at the package home page.
