6 * Release 1.07: Now uses a new and different rule for implicating
7 superordinate language tags in accept-language lists. Previously,
8 superordinates were just tacked onto the, so "en-US, ja", turned
9 into "en-US, ja, en". However, this turned out to be suboptimal
10 for many users of RT, a popular system using Maketext. The new
11 rule is that a tag implicates superordinate forms right after it,
12 unless those tags are explicitly stated elsewhere in the
13 accept-languages list. So "en-US ja" becomes "en-US en ja". If
14 you want "en" to be really lower, you have to actually state it
15 there: "en-US ja en" is left as-is.
16
17 The 04super.t and 05super.t tests in t/ have many many examples of
18 this, including some strange corner cases.
19
20 (In implementing this change, I also refactored some code in
21 Maketext.pm, for hopefully improved readability. However,
22 the above is the only actual change in behavior.)

25 * Release 1.06: Now has "use utf8" to make the things work
26 happily. Some fancy footwork is required to make this work under
27 pre-utf8 perl versions.

30 * Release 1.05: Different Makefile.PL, same .pm code.
31
32 Jesse Vincent, Hugo van der Sanden, and Jarkko Hietaniemi
33 encourage me to add this to the makefile:
34 ($] < 5.008) ? () : ( INSTALLDIRS => 'perl'),
35 so that when you install this on a recent version of perl (5.8 or
36 later), the installation will overwrite the Maketext.pm in your
37 core library directory. Email me if this produces trouble for any
38 of you folks out there, okay?

41 * Release 1.04: Implementing proper HTTP "tag;q=rank" parsing for
42 get_handle. This should make all the difference for users/victims
43 of the current version of Safari, which uses that syntax as well
44 as inserts random languages with low q numbers.
45 Thanks to Jesse Vincent and the whole RT junta for finding this.
46
47 * Added more tests, now in t/
48
49 * Lots of typo fixes to Maketext.pm. Thanks to Evan A. Zacks for
50 patient help in finding them all.

53 * Release 1.03: basically cosmetic tweaks to the docs and the
54 test.pl.

57 * Release 1.02: EBCDIC-compatability changes courtesy of Peter
58 Prymmer. Added [*,...] as alias for [quant,...] and [#,...] as an
59 alias for [numf,...]. Added some more things to test.pl
