Yes, this is the unfortunate problem: Pod is great for writing module docs,
because module docs aren't big and complicated. But the documentation for
Perl IS big and complicated, and so at some point it just needs its own
solutions for things like keeping everything in sync.
And I'm absolutely amazed and impressed by people who can keep up with the
immense task of translating a docbase that's not just big and complicated,
but is constantly changing! It's amazing! I'd be a nervous wreck if I had
to face a problem even one tenth as big. But there it is,
http://perldoc.jp/ , and it works!
I forgot to add one thing: we currently make XML (grrr!) files for
each modules, apart from doc itself, to indicate how/who/when/(for
whicn version) the localization is for.
We haven't used this XML information for anything yet, but it might be
some help when people wants "are there any localization to XX language
of this module available?" or so.
