The old pod_ok() will still work, but the hoohah with the POD_WARNING, POD_ERROR etc levels is now ignored. Pod correctness is now an all-or-nothing affair. Not sure how I feel about this. If you were still using Pod::Checker, I'd definately say it won't fly since it throws so many silly warnings. You mentioned a few, the "Empty Paragraph" and that you can't use "=item foo" more than once. Pod::Simple is hopefully more realistic.
