0.28 - 2007-06-03, H.Merijn Brand
* IMPORTANT CHANGE: new () returns undef if it gets unsupported
attributes. Until now, new ({ esc_char => "\\" }) was just
silently ignored. Rejecting it and failing is better than
continuing with false assumptions.

* Added t/65_allow.t
* Added allow_loose_escapes (see doc) (RT#15076)
* More code cleanup in XS

* Some more info on using escape character (jZed)
* Mention Text::CSV_PP in README
* Added t/45_eol.t, eol tests

Still have to find the best spot to document
the difference between empty string and undef
* Spell-checked the pod and fixed some typo's
* Added t/70_rt.t
- Regression for RT#24386: \t doesn't work (WFM)
- Regression and fix for RT#21530: getline () return at eof
This one still passes under perl 5.00504
- Regression for RT#18703: Fails to use quote_char of '~'
* Added t/55_combi.t for most combinations of always_quote,
sep_char, quote_char, and escape_char
* Added docs about sep_char not allowed to be either quote_char
or escape_char
* Both combine () and parse () now return FALSE id sep_char is
equal to either quote_char or escape_char. Done in XS, as it
was a slowdown of 10% when done in perl.

0.22 - 2000-12-22, Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de>
* CSV_XS.xs: Added the handling of escape characters
outside of quotes. Kirill Paliy <kpaliy@aaanet.ru>
0.21 - 2000-08-18, Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de>
* CSV_XS.pm (parse): Minor bugfix in the parse method.

0.20 - 1999-06-28, Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de>
* CSV_XS.xs: Fixed a bug in the decoder where escapeChar wasn't
handled right. Pavel Kotala <pkotala@logis.cz>
0.19 - 1999-05-01, Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de>

and the like.

0.16 - 1999-02-11, Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de>

need not inherit from Exporter any longer. (This caused trying
to autoload DESTROY without any reason. Seems to me to be a
serious performance penalty.)
* CSV_XS.pm: Being a little bit less strict now: If quoteChar and
escapeChar are different, then the quote char may be part of
the field. (Not at the fields start, of course.)
0.15 - 1998-08-21, Jochen Wiedmann <joe@ispsoft.de>
