POD Indexing Project

itub writes "The Pod indexing project has the goal of making the Perl documentation more accessible and searchable. The two main specific objectives are: adding relevant keywords throughout the Perl core documentation using the X<> POD code; and Creating tools for generating and searching the index resulting from these keywords, including an improved perldoc with keyword searching support. It is expected that websites such as perldoc.perl.org, search.cpan.org, and cpan.uwinnipeg.ca will be able to use the resulting index (if they want to). For an example using the current index, see PerldocDemo. Get involved by joining the perl-documentation mailing list (send a blank message to perl-documentation-subscribe@perl.org), reading the indexer resources, choosing a POD to index, and adding your name to Wiki."

Anyone know if they are working with that group who is creating a comments repository for CPAN? I think if the two worked together it would be amazing.
