I frequently search google-news for news about Perl. On a recent search, I came across an article about literate programming: intertwining documentation and code, POD style. I chuckled at the paragraph:
It supports not only embedding traditional languages such as Perl or Java but also XML languages such as XSLT, schemas or any other XML "code". Support for languages such as Python would probably require some adaptation since XWEB doesn't appear to care much about indentation.Ahh yes, whitespace-as-semantics strikes again.

But XWEB is LP, and merlyn didn't say POD was LP, just that LP is "POD-style," in that it is similar. But yeah.
