I'm willing to help out with this. What exactly needs to be done  
and what's the process?
The basic process we've used in the past is to get all the stable  
modules you want to document in one tree (e.g., from checking out the  
whole CVS tree from gtk2-perl-xs), build them, and then collect all  
of the *.pod files from the */blib directories.  Then convert all of  
these to HTML with your favorite converter, with the document root  
set to "/doc/pod" (so that they link correctly when copied to http:// 
gtk2-perl.sf.net/doc/pod).
The devil is in the details, of course.  You need to make sure that  
your library versions are up-to-date -- e.g., the current stable gtk+  
is 2.8.x; if you build the docs against gtk+ 2.4.x, there will be  
whole pages missing from the output.
The actual process you need to follow will depend entirely on the  
tool you're using.  I can't really give more details because i  
haven't done this myself in about three years.
When you get all that together, make a tarball of the result and  
we'll upload it to the server.
