I'm pleased to announce release 4.07 of podlators.

podlators contains Pod::Man and Pod::Text modules which convert POD
input to *roff source output, suitable for man pages, or plain text. It
also includes several subclasses of Pod::Text for formatted output to
terminals with various capabilities. It is the source package for the
Pod::Man and Pod::Text modules included with Perl.

Changes from previous release:

[Pod::Man] Avoid undefined variable warnings when determining the
title for a Perl module at the top level of a distribution. Thanks,
Dave Mitchell. (#112625)

[Pod::Man] Fix font resets with nroff when fixed-width fonts are used
in the label for an =item. Previously, italic was being ended with
\f(CW even in nroff mode, which, with groff, only changes the font to
fixed-width and doesn't reset to a non-italic font. Thanks, Paul
Townsend. (#98199)

[Pod::Man] Suppress warnings about a missing Encode module if
PERL_CORE is set in the environment. Due to build ordering during
Perl core builds, Encode is expected to not yet be available during
the build step that sets PERL_CORE. Thanks, Dave Mitchell.

You can download it from:

<http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/podlators/>

This package is maintained using Git; see the instructions on the above
page to access the Git repository.

Please let me know of any problems or feature requests not already listed
in the TODO file.
