Revision history for Perl extension XML::RSS.
1.02 - Mon Feb 20 15:34:21 2003
* fixed bug in encode(). encode() did not respect CDATA
sections and would mangle them when encountered. now behaves
properly (we hope) even when CDATA and #PCDATA are mixed
together liberally
1.01 - Mon Feb 3 15:46:25 2003
* fixed bug with handle_char(). i (brian d foy) mis-diagnosed a
previous bug and broke handle_char() when what I should have done
was initialise the object for each call to parse*()
* if you have version 1.0, you should upgrade to this version, 1.01
1.00 - Fri Jan 31 11:26:41 2003
* the as_string method now encodes special characters. valid output!
* a new "Auto Add" feature can add modules for namespaces found
while parsing (off by default)
* can output RSS 2.0, but not parse it yet
* this is the last major release in this track. we are going to
completely rewrite XML::RSS as something more extendable.
0.98_05 - Mon Jan 27 15:54:32 2003
* The auto add_feature is not controlled by the $AUTO_ADD variable
and is off by default
* removed the distribution tests now that it is ready to distribute
0.98_04 - Fri Jan 17 20:00:29 2003
* the parse and parsefile routines now automatically add non-
standard namespace to the modules list
0.98_03 - Fri Jan 17 19:22:20 2003
* changed the handle_char() routine to replace data rather than
append to existing data. this takes care of the doubling problem
in the last issue.
* set the RSS 2.0 namespace in the _initializer routine
* all tests now pass. if this works for people, it could turn into
a release candidate
0.98_02 - Fri Jan 17 19:15:45 2003
* changed the handle_char() routine to replace data rather than
append to existing data. this takes care of the doubling problem
in the last issue.
* set the RSS 2.0 namespace in the _initializer routine
* all tests now pass. if this works for people, it could turn into
a release candidate
0.98_02 - Fri Jan 17 15:47:29 2003
* added initial RSS 2.0 support
* first fix to properly encode special characters in output
* need to fix feature to add namespace (tests are TO DO)

0.5 - fixed handle_char method which croaked on cdata
that contained entities. Reported by
Wojciech Zwiefka <wojtekz@cnt.pl>
- prettied up the output from rss2html.pl. It's
now more suitable for including news feeds on
a Web site. Also added ability to give local
filename or http URL.

unless otherwise specified

0.91 channel elements.
0.97 Wed Mar 21 03:13:29 EST 2001
-added support for the Taxonomy module (taxo). It only works
inside the channel or item elements and only supports one
