Subject: Convert Pod-Simple test files from DOS EOLs to UNIX EOLs
A recent discussion on p5p: http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2009-10/msg00967.html lead to a change being made to the release process so that certain files (mainly under win32/) that used to be converted from UNIX EOLs (in the repository) to DOS EOLs (in the release tarball) are no longer converted. The reason was simply that it is no longer necessary for these files to have DOS EOLs, since modern Windows programs cope perfectly well with UNIX EOLs, and it is simpler not to do the conversion. It was noticed at the same time that a small number of other files currently have DOS EOLs in the repository, and it would perhaps be simpler if all files in the repository had UNIX EOLs (unless any have to have DOS EOLs for some reason). The following files in Pod-Simple have DOS EOLs. It would be helpful if a new release of Pod-Simple could be made which converts these files to UNIX EOLs, and it would be best for people in the future looking back through the history of changes to files if nothing else was changed in these files at the same time (otherwise those other changes would get masked somewhat by the noise of the EOLs changes).

Thanks. I've fixed them and committed them to svn. Allison, do you want to cut a new release with this change? If so, I'll send the patch downstream to blead. Best, David

A patch for the line endings has been sent to p5p and committed to the Pod::Simple repository. The next release will include the change.
