Yes, I disagree with this as well and have POD conversion software that relies on being able to use L<> for man pages, URLs, and several other things that aren't POD. If you have tools available to create real links for man pages, you want to allow specifying man pages in L<>, since otherwise you have to make guesses at whether something(1) is a man page reference or something else. So this is a bad thing to deprecate. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
