in reply to Campaign to clean up CPAN modules' POD?

I have beef with some pod on cpan. I've been really hurting using some modules off and on because of horrible documentation. Not so much because of poor examples, but because of 'no' examples- or .. just a lot of stuff missing.

I've felt like sending a please please or a note.. But then I realize, these monkeys are just like me- they're busy as all hell- and I should be glad they put something out there and documented it. So the rare time I do ask or suggest- I do it with the most care and respect possible (it's appreciated)- Other then that- The solution is to write pod yourself!!!

I don't mean to come accross pushy- What I am thinking of is write an addon tutorial to some module you think is poorly documented. I sure should put the keyboard where my mouth is and do that myself. Thanks for bringing all this up.
