This having been said, it might make sense to provide some kind of
infomation on this kind of thing, even if it's not a measurement of
kwalitee.  For example, I think it'd be interesting to find out what
percentage of people stick pod at the end and which inline.  It fits in
the same catagory of 'how many people use Test::More'.  'how many
people use the 'our' keyword'  Not necessarly an indication of kwalitee,
but a useful metric overall.

Oh crap, that sounds like me volentering for something doesn't it?
Botheration.  I'll liase with that Orange Lover and find out what this
kind of thing involves.

Mark.
