I don't even see a pod column over here. CPANPLUS says Test::POD and
Devel::Cover are at the latest versions too...

I thought my lead balloon comment may generate the discussion that didn't happen last time! ;)  I'll ask around to see if I can find someone to do a logo.  I did think with all the Apple/Mac users we had there would be one artist in the group though! :)

I wouldn't count on it. I'm pretty sure all the mac users at
chicago.pm switched at osx, not earlier.
A lead balloon might be a good mascot. I thought it would be ironic to
measure how much test coverage has increased by how much longer the
