The thing to remember is that people who can't code but would like to help (me) are more likely to be familiar with mark-up language than with POD. Also, there are many existing stylesheets that could be modified for *ML conversions. An ugly hack that works often wins over beauty - take the english language. That said, pod wouldn't stop me from contributing but I really don't think of markup as being very hard to read. > So users should be our first target.
