So, to save processing time, it's faster to put documentation after the C<__END__>. Also, writing all the POD in one place usually leads to a more cohesive document, rather than being forced to follow the layout of your code. This policy issues violations if any POD is found before an C<__END__>. =head1 CONFIGURATION This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options. =head1 NOTES Some folks like to use C<=for>, and C<=begin>, and C<=end> tags to create block comments in-line with their code. Since those tags aren't usually part of the documentation, this Policy does allows them to appear before the C<__END__> statement. =begin comments frobulate() Accepts: A list of things to frobulate Returns: True if successful =end comments sub frobulate { ... } =head1 AUTHOR Chris Dolan =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2006-2011 Chris Dolan.
