GSoC Status Update (again)

Hello again,

I am writing another status report as an addendum to my last, as I was able
to meet on irc with my mentor today. The primary thing discussed was my test
cases for Pod::Html. rjbs suggested I look into Html::Element as a way to
save myself much work, because writing more test cases for the current
Pod::Html, although helpful in understanding it, will do little after the
conversion to Pod::Simple. This is because I am not preserving the exact
html output of the current Pod::Html in the switch to Pod::Simple, but I am
preserving the overall translation, and obviously the diff between the two
outputs will yield many differences (so I would have to rewrite the tests).
Html::Element will allow me to focus on the gist of the html without
worrying about the layout. I have not looked into the module yet, but for
now that is what I understand.

Since yesterday's status report, I have written test cases which do not
validate (but do not invalidate) my previous understanding that "C<> links"
are code snippets that are also perldoc =item directives. Regardless of what
further tests reveal, the new Pod::Html will not implicitly convert C<>
snippets to links, as I am taking the advice of Marek Rouchal and sticking
to perlpodspec.

That is all for now,
Marc
