There's no need for newer perl, mysql, or, IMO, Apache.  We use MySQL  
5 and perl 5.10.  We use Apache 1.x, never upgrading because it's not  
easy (we use a lot of hooks which have changed) and there's no  
tangible benefit to it.

As to the front-end Ajax stuff, that's mostly available in the public  
repo (which hasn't been updated in awhile but hopefully will be real  
soon), plugins/Ajax/.  A lot of the CSS is not available in the public  
repo though.
