The pod2it team (Italian translation project of core Perl pods) is proud to announce a new POD2::IT release available on CPAN.

This is a important release since there are 9 new translated pods and all pods has been updated to Perl 5.8.8. We have now 32 translated pods including most important like perlfunc.pod and all perlfaq*.pod! :-)

POD2::IT also contains the patch to Pod/Perldoc.pm in order to continue to use -f and -q switches with translated pods (not only italian) with the syntax:

%> perldoc -L IT <podname>
%> perldoc -L IT -f <function>
%> perldoc -L FR -q <FAQregex>

The -L switch allows to define language code for desired language translation. If POD2::<code> package doesn't exists, the effect of the switch will be ignored.

Note that currently the bleadperl has been patched.
