-=head1 NAME
-
-Locale::Codes::Changes - details changes to Locale::Codes
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-This describes the changes made to modules in the Locale-Codes
-distribution. Major changes are marked with asterisks (*). For the
-most part, all modules have remained backward compatible at every
-release, but occasionally a change is made which is backward
-incompatible. These are marked with an exclamation mark (!).
-
-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).
-
-I intend to check for new codes four times a year (March, June,
-September, December). I will also check on request, so if a code
-changes that you use, feel free to contact me. Any time there are new
-codes, I will add them to the module and release a new version.

-=item B<(*) Deprecated in core>
-
-Because correct usage of any of the Locale::Codes modules requires that
-they be kept up-to-date, I have long felt that it should not be distributed
-as a core module. After discussion on the perl5-porters list, it is agreed,
-and the deprecation process has been started.
-
-Thanks to p5p-porters (especially Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsaker) for discussion
-and guidance.
-
-=item Changes from a github pull request applied
-
-A couple minor changes (updated .travis.yml to include newest versions of
-perl; and a couple changes to pod_coverage.t) reported by lancew on GitHub.
-
-=item Got rid of Build.PL
-
-Simplified things by only supporting one of Makefile.PL/Build.PL (and the latter
-has been removed from perl core some time ago). RT 123572
-
-=item Fixed INSTALLDIRS
-
-The behavior of installing core modules changed in 5.12 a bit, and Makefile.PL
-now reflects that. RT 123571

-=item Fixed the default error condition in legacy modules.
-
-With the addition of the OO module, better error handling was added (and it
-was on by default). The non-OO (legacy) modules did not report errors, so
-code that uses them, would now behave differently if invalid data were
-passed in.
-
-I have turned off error handling by default in the legacy modules. The
-show_errors method was added to each of the non-OO modules to report errors
-if desired.

-Reported by dmaestro on GitHub.

-
-=item B<(*) Rewrote as OO module>
-
-The core module (Locale::Codes) is now an OO module that can be used
-directly. All of the other modules (Locale::Codes::TYPE) are still
-the older functional interfaces and remain unchanged.
-
-=item B<Added some constants>
-
-Historically, the constant names used to identify the codesets have been
-named inconsistently. The original constants for codesets are:
-
- Type Constants
-
- country LOCALE_CODE_*
- currency LOCALE_CURR_*
- language LOCALE_LANG_*
-
- script LOCALE_SCRIPT_*
- langfam LOCALE_LANGFAM_*
- langvar LOCALE_LANGVAR_*
- langext LOCALE_LANGEXT_*
-
-For consistencies sake, I have added some new codes (which are otherwise
-identical to the irregularly named codes):
-
- country LOCALE_COUNTRY_*
- currency LOCALE_CURRENCY_*
- language LOCALE_LANGUAGE_*
-
-Going forward, all constants will include the full name of the code type.
-
-=item Non-OO modules are now generated
-
-All non-OO modules are now automatically generated. This will make it easier
-to keep them 100% consistent as well as making it easier to add new types
-of code sets.
-
-All of the documentation for them is also generated except for the description
-of the code sets. That has been moved into the Locale::Codes::Types document.
-
-=item Fixed a bug where constants were not exported
-
-Some of the constants for some of the newer code sets were not exported properly.
-This was fixed when I started generating the non-OO modules, but was reported
-(after I had already fixed it in development) as RT 119741 .

-
-As of June, the FIPS codes are not being published in their
-entirety. Only changes to the codes are published. This adds
-a huge layer of complexity to maintaining the set, which is not
-worth doing considering that the set is deprecated. As such, the

-
-=item B<FIPS-10 country codes deprecated>
-
-The FIPS-10 document is being withdrawn. It was deprecated in 2008,
-and is being updated now only until all the agencies that use it have
-switched to something else. The current version no longer lists the
-long names for countries. These long names (such as 'Republic of
-Albania' for Albania) only appeared in the old FIPS-10 document which
-is no longer available, so they are no longer available in this module.
-
-I will continue to support the FIPS-10 codeset as long as it is available,
-but at that point, it will be withdrawn immediately. If an official
-end-of-life date is announced, I will include a notice here. Otherwise, support
-for the codeset will be discontinued when the document is withdrawn.
-
-You are encouraged to no longer use the FIPS-10 codeset.
-
-=item B<Domain country codes now come from ISO 3166>
-
-The IANA domain codes have changed slightly. The IANA no longer
-publishes a list of countries associated with their codes. Instead,
-they use the ISO 3166 codes and country names. However, they support
-a few non-standard codes, so I will continue to maintain this codeset.
-The domain codes are now lowercase to correspond to the ISO 3166 codes.

-The alias_code function exists for backward compatibility. It has been replaced
-by rename_country_code . The alias_code function will be removed sometime
-after September, 2013 .

-
-=item B<Reorganized code>
-
-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 modules are now just wrappers.
-
-=item B<(!) Changed XXX_code2code behavior slightly>
-
-In previous versions, passing in the same code set for both code set
-arguments would automatically return undef. For example:
-
- country_code2code('bo',LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2,LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2);
- => undef
-
-This doesn't seem like reasonable behavior, so it has been changed
-to allow the same code set:
-
- country_code2code('bo',LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2,LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2);
- => 'bo'
-
-Note that if an invalid code is passed in, undef will still be
-returned:
-
- country_code2code('bol',LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2,LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2);
- => undef
-
-=item B<Added many semi-private routines>
-
-Previous versions had only two semi-private routines: rename_country
-and alias_code which had the ability to modify the internal data in
-a couple very limited ways. It was requested (in an anonymous posting
-by someone named Steve and also by Steve Hay) that better support
-for modifying internal data, so a full set of routines were added.
-
-The full set of routines includes:
-
- rename_country
- rename_language
- rename_currency
- rename_script
-
- add_country
- add_language
- add_currency
- add_script
-
- delete_country

-
-=item B<(*) New maintainer>
-
-From 1997 to 2004, Locale::Codes was maintained by Neil
-Bowers. Unfortunately, no updates were made from June 2004 to January
-2010. During that time, a number of changes have been made to the
-standards since then, so the data included was out-of-date.
-
-I contacted Neil to get his permission to assume maintenance of
-the module, and he kindly agreed.
-
-=item B<(*) (!) All codes are generated from standards>
-
-All of the values returned by the various functions are now values
-directly from the standards. This means that the values returned in
-the 2.xx series are not necessarily the same as the values returned
-here.
-
-As an example, the ISO 3166 standard which lists country codes refers
-to the country associated with the code "bo" as "Bolivia,
-Plurinational State of", so that is what is returned. In the 2.xx
-series, "Bolivia" was returned. Also, the country names vary from one
-standard to another. So the code "bol" which is maintained by the
-United Nations returns the name of the country as "Bolivia
-(Plurinational State of)". Some common aliases have been added, so you
-can still request a code associated with a county name "Bolivia".
-
-Since the data comes from the standards, some "incorrect" values are
-no longer supported. For example, 2.07 treated "Zaire" as an alias for
-"Congo", but the country changed it's name, and "Zaire" is not in the
-standard, so it has been dropped in 3.00.
-
-=item B<Added new codeset(s)>
-
-FIPS 10 country codes (requested in RT 1755)
-
-Alpha-3 and Term language codes (requested in RT 11730)
-
-Numeric currency codes (requested in RT 18797)
-
-=item B<(*) (!) Locale::Script changed>
-
-In 2.xx, Locale::Script assigned scripts to country codes, which is NOT
-how it is done currently in the standards. It appears that an older version
-of ISO 15924 did this, but I haven't found an old version to confirm
-that, and in any case, that is not the case in the current standards.
-
-As a result, the Locale::Script module is completely incompatible with
-the 2.xx version with respect to the types of codes it supports. None of
-the old codes will work.
-
-=item B<Added missing functions>
-
-I've added in some functions which were "missing" previously (since there was
-only one set of codes supported, the code2code functions didn't apply):
-
- language_code2code
- currency_code2code
-
-so the interfaces for each type of codes are consistent.
-
-=item B<(!) Dropped support for _alias_code>
-
-In Locale::Country, _alias_code was an allowed, but deprecated function
-which was documented to be supported in the 2.xx series. I've removed it.
-
-=item B<(!) All functions return the standard value>
-
-code2country (and other equivalent functions) 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 differ based on the CODESET)
-
-=item B<(!) rename_country function altered>
-
-The rename_country function 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).

-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.
-
-=head1 VERSION 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().
-
-=head1 VERSION 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
-
-=head1 VERSION 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.
-
-=head1 VERSION 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.
-
-=head1 VERSION 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 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.
-
-=head1 VERSION 1.06 (2001-03-04; neilb)
-
-Added Locale::Constants, which defines three symbols for identifying
-which codeset is being used:
-
- LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2
- LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_3
- LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC
-
-Updated Locale::Country to support all three code sets defined by ISO
-3166. This was requested by Keith Wall. I haven't added multiple
-codeset support to the other modules yet - I'll wait until someone
-asks for them.
-
-=head1 VERSION 1.05 (2001-02-13; neilb)
-
-Added Locale::Currency, contribution from Michael Hennecke.
-
-Added test suite for it (t/currency.t) and added test cases
-to t/all.t for the all_* functions.
-
-=head1 VERSION 1.04 (2000-12-21; neilb)
-
-Fixed very minor typos from 1.03!

-
-Updated Locale::Country:
- - fixed spelling of a few countries
- - added link to a relevant page from CIA world factbook
-
-Updated Locale::Language:
- - fixed typo in the documentation (ISO 939 should be 639)
-
-=head1 VERSION 1.02 (2000-05-04; neilb)
-
-Updated Locale::Country and Locale::Language to reflect changes in the
-relevant ISO standards. These mainly reflect languages which are new
-to the relevant standard, and changes in the spelling of some country
-names.
-
-Added official URLs for the standards to the SEE ALSO sections of the
-doc for each module.
-
-Thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi for pointing me at the pages with latest
-versions of ISO 3166 and 639.
-
-=head1 VERSION 1.00 (1998-03-09; neilb)
-
-Added Locale::Country::_alias_code() so that 'uk' can be added as the
-code for "United Kingdom", if you want it. This was prompted by Ed
-Jordan.
-
-Added a new test suite for handling this case, and extended the
-existing test-suite to include testing of the case where 'uk' hasn't
-been defined as a valid code.
-
