I don't think you understand the test. CPANTS did not check for POD coverage, it checked that you seemed to have a pod coverage test. You could create one that did nothing, and that caused the test to pass. CPANTS does not evaluate your code, it just looks at it. The objection was that some people don't want to distribute that kind of test, because its results are for the developer's benefit, not the user's. -- rjbs
