48 Please let me know if you experience any problems with these modules,
49 or have any ideas for additions.
51 Also, I plan on releasing a new version a couple of times a year to make
52 sure that all of the codes are current. If a code changes in any standard,
53 and you want a new release, just email me and I'll put out a new release.
