For those of you who like perusing gobs of autogenerated info, take a
look at

http://homepage.mac.com/michael_scott/Parrot/pod_report.html

where I've put up a list of Parrot POD errors as seen by podchecker.

I've started to put together a bunch Perl modules which will allow us
autogenerate HTML documentation from the inline POD. As a step in this
direction, unless anyone has objections, I'm going to tidy up the POD.
I'll do this a file at a time, and let you know when it's done.

So, after migrating from Pod::Checker to Pod-Simple, I've cleared up
all the pod errors and done a rudimentary html tree. The state of
parrot pod can be seen here
http://homepage.mac.com/michael_scott/Parrot/docs/html/. That's every
file that has pod in it. Obviously there are a few files such as
imcc/t/syn/pod.t that contain pod that is not documentation. Just
ignore them.

I'll move on to phase 2 now, which is to normalize existing pod and add
some minimal content to files that need it.

The idle browser may notice that there are some links in the files, all
broken. This is because Pod::Simple::HTML needs fixing.

Do you have patches to fix the errors in CVS or are they even necessary?
