[Catalyst] Where has Maypole's pager gone?

[Marcus Ramberg]

Hey Will.

Catalyst is somewhat less focused on CRUD than Maypole, so we let you  
roll your own pager functionality as required by your application,  
thus our CRUD example is somewhat minimal. However, you can check out  
Hops (http://simonf.com/catalyst/) for a more complete crud example.  
Meanwhile, you can use any of the pagers that exist for Class::DBI,  
(Class::DBI::Pager and Class::DBI::Plugin::Pager), or you can check  
out the newly released Catalyst::Model::CDBI::Sweet, which includes a  
fast pager implementation as well.

HTH,
With regards,
Marcus Ramberg
