Well, PAR::Filter::PodStrip doesn't use Pod::Strip as it stands but uses its own POD filter. Questions I have here are: 1) What's the official stance? Do we have in the perl docs that "^=\w" is POD? 2) Should PAR::Filter::PodStrip be using Pod::Strip? Could we unload some baggage that way? What do you think? Best regards, Steffen
