Revision history for Perl extension MARC-XML

0.92 Thu Jul 30 22:37:07 EDT 2009
      - small documentation changes to close RT tickets #48334 and #48333
        filed by Jonathan from Debian world.
      - added license string to META.yml so that CPAN can pick it up

0.91 Tue Jul 28 2009
      - Nixing the stray space (always been there) in the schemaLocation
        attribute for single-record output
      - Properly apply the leader modification for USMARC to signal UTF-8
        encoding.
      - Escape '<', '>', and '&' used as indicator values and subfield labels 
        during XML output (Bill Erickson)
      - CPAN RT#34082: clarify names of header output switches

0.90 Fri Dec 14 2007
      - modifications to MARC::File::SAX to use LocalName rather than Name
        Name can contain a namespace prefix and cause parsing to fail
        Should be ok to rely on LocalName since the parser factory is
        requiring Namespace support?
      - MARC::File::SAX also can build up multiple records now, for use 
        in other SAX contexts like Net::OAI::Harvester. This required
        a few changes in MARC::File::XML as well.

0.88 Wed Nov 28 2007
      - String test for subfield code to avoid dropping $0 (Galen Charlton)

0.88_1 Tue Oct 23 2007
      - Fixed a typo in M::F::X that could be the origin of the test failure(miker)
      - Removed some useless (and confusing) code that
	    throws away some character set mapping information in the 066 (miker)

0.85 Fri Feb 13 2007
      - fixed typo in handling of unimarc w/regard to marc8 (ppoulain)

0.84 Mon Nov 26 2006
      - Fixed UNIMARC encoding detection logic (miker)
	  - Added UNIMARC Authority support (miker) 

0.83 Fri Apr 21 15:19:20 EST 2006
      - remove premature return from close() thanks Jay Luker (exlibris)

      - details unknown :(

0.81  Fri Feb  3 23:29:04 EST 2006

        will not throw warnings about unitialized variables too.

0.8   Fri Feb  3 22:49:11 EST 2006
      - overhaul by Mike Rylander to use the new MARC::Charset for mapping
        back and forth from marc8 encoding to utf8 encoding
      - Makefile.PL requires v0.9 of MARC::Charset to be installed

0.7   Thu Apr 14 11:54:24 CDT 2005

      - rudimentary XML encoding (thanks to Peter Robertson for inquiring
