+ChangeLog for Locale-Codes Distribution
As of 3.00, the codes are autogenerated from the standards. With each release, codes will
be re-generated and tested to see if any code changed. Any time there are any changes to
the codes, it will be flagged below with a change: NEW CODE(s).

3.10 2010-02-18 sbeck
- * NEW CODE(s)
- * Moved support files into the Locale::Codes namespace.
- * The work done in each of the Locale::XXX modules was
- virtually identical to each other. It has all
- been moved to a central module and the
- Locale::XXX moduels are now just wrappers.
- * The XXX_code2code functions would return undef if the
- same codeset were passed in for both the 2nd and
- 3rd arguments. This doesn't make sense and has
- been changed.
- * Added all semi-private routines (except for the
- couple that were already present):
- rename_XXX
- add_XXX
- delete_XXX
- add_XXX_alias
- delete_XXX_alias
- rename_XXX_code
- add_XXX_code_alias
- delete_XXX_code_alias
- * Added "UK" alias. Steve Hay

- * NEW CODE(s)
- * Took over maintenance of the code
- * All codes and country names come from the official
- standards
- * code2country now returns the name of the country specified
- in the standard (if the different standards refer
- to the country by different variations in the name,
- the results will differe based on the CODESET)
- * Added code sets
- FIPS 10 country codes
- Alpha-3 and Term language codes
- Numeric currency codes
- * The rename_country funcion from 2.07 would guess the
- CODESET (unlike all other functions which used
- a default of LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2). The guess can
- cause problems since (with the addition of FIPS)
- codes may appear in different codesets for different
- countries. The behavior has been changed to be
- the same as other functions (default to
- LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2).
- * Dropped support for _alias_code
- * Added language_code2code, currency_code2code

- * Documentation bug: one of the examples used => where the

- Pointed out by TJ Mather and MYT.
- * Updated the URL for the appendix in the CIA world factbook.

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> 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.

- I haven't added multiple codeset support to the other
- modules yet - I'll wait until someone asks for them.
