.Mpl extension in URL: Perl related technology?

Question

I have seen a company using such URLs http://www.foob.ar/cgi-perl/bar.mpl. They seem to be using Perl in the background, but I would like to know what technology (infrastructure, modules, etc.) is it supposed to use with the extension .mpl?

I believe that this will be the Mason template engine , but cannot find confirmation.

Answer 1

It looks like a top-level module MASON / script.
