Announcing MetaPOD

In the last few hours I uploaded something I hope people will find useful.

MetaPOD

https://metacpan.org/release/MetaPOD

In its simplest form, its a way of storing meta-data about classes in JSON
in POD

https://metacpan.org/module/MetaPOD::JSON#Using-MetaPOD::JSON-in-your-documentation

It presently only supports communicating "inherits" and "does" information
about classes, but I have plans for more.

And with just that alone, I already have basic inheritance diagram
generation, which requires *no* evaluation of the classes code to do so.

The dist itself already contains annotations in its own format, and you can
scrape these quite easily

https://metacpan.org/source/KENTNL/MetaPOD-0.1.0/examples/self_structure.pl

And return useful dot files

https://metacpan.org/source/KENTNL/MetaPOD-0.1.0/examples/self_structure.dot

And which returns pretty graphs

Feedback welcome/requested/etc.
