7	* Moved the language-preference-detecting code into new module
8	I18N::LangTags::Detect.

15
16	* Release 1.08:
17
18	* Corrected a one-line code bug in v1.07 that accidentally demoted
19	all en-* tags in cases of lexicon-groups that had an en.pm but no
20	en_*.pm.  Thanks to Robert Spier for spotting this.  Test added.
21	So don't use v1.07!
22
23	* Autrijus found some typoes in the TPJ article.  Fixed.1

26
27	* Release 1.07:  Now uses a new and different rule for implicating
28	superordinate language tags in accept-language lists.  Previously,
29	superordinates were just tacked onto the, so "en-US, ja", turned
30	into "en-US, ja, en".  However, this turned out to be suboptimal
31	for many users of RT, a popular system using Maketext.  The new
32	rule is that a tag implicates superordinate forms right after it,
33	unless those tags are explicitly stated elsewhere in the
34	accept-languages list.  So "en-US ja" becomes "en-US en ja".  If
35	you want "en" to be really lower, you have to actually state it
36	there: "en-US ja en" is left as-is.
37
38	The 04super.t and 05super.t tests in t/ have many many examples of
39	this, including some strange corner cases.
40
41	(In implementing this change, I also refactored some code in
42	Maketext.pm, for hopefully improved readability.  However,
43	the above is the only actual change in behavior.)
44
452003-06-21  Sean M. Burke  sburke@cpan.org
46	* Release 1.06:  Now has "use utf8" to make the things work
47	happily.  Some fancy footwork is required to make this work under
48	pre-utf8 perl versions.
49
502003-04-18  Sean M. Burke  sburke@cpan.org
51	* Release 1.05:  Different Makefile.PL, same .pm code.
52
53	Jesse Vincent, Hugo van der Sanden, and Jarkko Hietaniemi
54	encourage me to add this to the makefile:
55	 ($] < 5.008) ? () : ( INSTALLDIRS => 'perl'),
56	so that when you install this on a recent version of perl (5.8 or
57	later), the installation will overwrite the Maketext.pm in your
58	core library directory.  Email me if this produces trouble for any
59	of you folks out there, okay?
60
612003-04-02  Sean M. Burke  sburke@cpan.org
62	* Release 1.04: Implementing proper HTTP "tag;q=rank" parsing for
63	get_handle.  This should make all the difference for users/victims
64	of the current version of Safari, which uses that syntax as well
65	as inserts random languages with low q numbers.
66	Thanks to Jesse Vincent and the whole RT junta for finding this.
67
68	* Added more tests, now in t/
69
70	* Lots of typo fixes to Maketext.pm.  Thanks to Evan A. Zacks for
71	patient help in finding them all.
72
732001-06-21  Sean M. Burke  sburke@cpan.org
74	* Release 1.03: basically cosmetic tweaks to the docs and the
75	test.pl.
76
772001-06-20  Sean M. Burke  sburke@cpan.org
78	* Release 1.02:  EBCDIC-compatability changes courtesy of Peter
79	Prymmer.  Added [*,...] as alias for [quant,...] and [#,...] as an
80	alias for [numf,...].  Added some more things to test.pl
81
822001-05-25  Sean M. Burke  sburke@cpan.org
83	* Release 1.01:  total rewrite.  Docs are massive now.
84	Including TPJ13 article now.
85
862000-05-14  Sean M. Burke  sburke@cpan.org
87
88	* Release 0.18:  only change, regrettably, is a better makefile,
89	and it my email address has changed.
