Author has fixed the dual "=head1 NAME" in pod files, this reduce the number of problems.
However, description in "=head1 NAME" is still missing in many files, example:

=head1 NAME
Bio::Chado::Schema::Result::CellLine::CellLineCvtermprop

This still impacts LOTS of files.

Would you consider uploading the package with this issue, as it is a lintian Warning ?  (not now, package is not yet ready)
I could create a bug to trace the issue.
