Had you seen the rest of the thread? There was quite a bit of discussion of the backward compatibility issues, including the goals. Could you please fix these so that Pod::Man can be upgraded in the Perl core distribution? There isn't anything I can do about them on the Pod::Man side that I can see without going to bizarre lengths, and it's quite natural to fix them in Pod::Simple. The most important from my perspective is for Pod::Simple to close file descriptors that it opens; not doing this causes real problems on Windows. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
