Subject: Pod::link needs more unofficial url types
Pod::link needs more unofficial url types. You could add more to my $url_rx = '(?:http|ftp|mailto|news):.+'; or just do it generic, like (i've checked around, 3-8 seems to be the range for protocol) my $url_rx = '(?:\w{3,8}):.+'; my $url_rx = '(?:\w{3,}):.+'; and of course all these should become officially supported (pod pages can't have ':' in the name, and there's no good reason to leave good stuff out)
