2.06  2002-07-15 neilb

        * The four modules which have data after __DATA__ weren't
          closing the DATA filehandle after reading from it,
          which they should. Bug and patch from Steve Hay.

2.05  2002-07-08 neilb

        * Added three letter codes for the countries that were missing
          them. Patch from TJ Mather.
        * Documentation bug: one of the examples used => where the
          lvalue was a constant, which isn't allowed, unless you
          put the () with the constant to force the right interpretation.
          Pointed out by TJ Mather and MYT.
        * Updated the URL for the appendix in the CIA world factbook.
          Patch from TJ Mather.

2.04  2002-05-23 neilb

        * updated according to changes in ISO 3166-1 described
          in ISO 3166-1 newsletters V-4 and V-5, dated 2002-05-20:
                - Kazakstan is now "Kazakhstan"
                - Macau is now "Macao"
          The old names are retained as aliases.

          The alpha-2 and alpha-3 codes for East Timor have changed:
                tp -> tl
                tmp -> tls
          the numeric code stays 626. If you want to support the old
          codes, you can use the semi-private function alias_code().

2.03  2002-03-24 neilb

        * Fixed a typo in the alias for the Vatican, reported (with patch)
          by Philip Newton.
        * Added "Moldova" as an alias for "Moldova, Republic of"
        * Updated Makefile.PL to include AUTHOR and ABSTRACT

2.02  2002-03-09 neilb

        * added semi-private routine rename_country() to Locale::Country,
          based on a patch from Iain Chalmers.
        * added test rename.t for the above function.
        * renamed _alias_code to be alias_code. Have retained the old
          name for backwards compatibility. Will remove it when the
          major version number next changes.

2.01  2002-02-18 neilb

        * Split the documentation for all modules into separate pod files.
        * Made sure all =over were =over 4; some were other values.
        * The code2code() methods had one more shift than was needed.

2.00  2002-02-17 neilb

        * Created Locale::Script which provides an interface to the
          ISO codes for identification of scripts (writing scripts,
          rather than perl style scripts). The codes are defined
          by ISO 15924, which is currently in final draft.
          Thanks to Jarkko for pointing out this new standard.
          All three code sets are supported, and a test-suite added.

        * Added support for country name variants to Locale::Country,
          so that
                country2code('USA')
                country2code('United States')
                country2code('United States of America')
          will all return 'us'.
          This had been in the LIMITATIONS section since the first version.
          Patch from TJ Mather <tjmather%tjmather.com@localhost> with additional
          variants from me. Added test-cases for these.

        * Added VERSION to Locale::Constants. Thanks to Jarkko for
          pointing that it was missing.

        * Should really have bumped major version with previous release,
          since there was a change to the API.
