Interesting. :-)


I've got a question regarding the various lintian modules. I'm a command line 
person and often use tools like perldoc to read the documentation that is in 
with code. Lintian does seem to use plain old documentation very much which I 
think is too bad. It is considered a perl best practice. I'm happy to add that 
type of pod to the modules and the scripts as I come across the need. Is that 
useful? 

I'd also like to move the README.Developer from plain text to pod while it is 
still early. pod can get translated into markdown and Mediawiki markup as well 
as html.

Regards,

Jeremiah
