Hello Helge, the man pages of po4a themselves are written in POD, as most of the Perl documentation, so yes, we have some experience here.
But I'm wondering why you try to translate the manpage produced by POD (a file in groff format) instead of trying to translate the pod file directly. I guess that translating the source files is always better than translating something that was generated. Or maybe there is something that I misuderstand?
