Yes. If you (or a co-maintainer) ever accidentally push a release from a machine without a Test::Pod and your pod has errors, any users who have Test::Pod get stuck. IIRC, that was the default situation for Module::Starter for some time (and might still be.) So, it is a symptom of a quite potentially evil situation, especially if the pod fails. http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.qa/2007/07/msg8842.html --Eric -- Hot dogs: just another condiment. --Heart-attack Man --------------------------------------------------- http://scratchcomputing.com ---------------------------------------------------
