Comment(by jkeenan):

 mikehh:

 I believe that all of the files cited now have POD `=item` markers, so
 documentors will know where to insert the documentation.

 I have written to about 10 of our contributors asking them to add function
 documentation to files which (per `svn annotate`) they have previously
 worked on.  NotFound++ for responding promptly to my requests on two
 separate files.

 As mentioned on IRC, ''t/codingstd/pmc_docs.t'' is an imperfect tool.
 (I'd give it a `B-`.)  It has problems with function signatures that are
 long (>80? >100?) characters.  So on some files where I have inserted POD
 formating markers, the tool still rates those functions as `missing`
 rather than `boilerplate only`.  Perhaps this is because I had to break
 some of those `=item` lines so that the file could pass the linelength
 standard.

 But we don't need to bother with all that until the release is out the
 door.

 Thank you very much.
