Thanks for your comments. We are discussing them and will take action to make things cleaner, clearer, and generally better for newcomers.
In particular, we had lots of pod, but hadn't tried testing it. Of course, there were broken tags and the like. There were also some undocumented methods. All of that has been repaired. The svn version now passes all pod and podcoverage tests (though we probably won't enable them by default).
We are also interested in reducing the prereq list, which is really more a list of suggestions than requirements. But, we will have to rework some tests to make the modules optional during testing. That will take a little time.
