2014-08-22 3.0002 Be more consistent when formatting UK numbers
for which we have incomplete data from OFCOM,,
no matter how they're instantiated;
New UK allocations

don't tell us how long 08 numbers are;
New UK allocations
2014-04-25 3.0 Add Number::Phone::Lib, a libphonenumber-compatible
subclass. This lacks some functionality but is
considerably faster (for UK numbers) and compatible
(for non-geographic NANP numbers);
Add some new CA/US area codes;
Add more GMSS codes;
Use libphonenumber data for some NANP countries (some
have dodgy data*) for is_mobile, is_fixed_line
* Some countries have duplicate regexes for fixed_line/mobile in libphonenumber,
and others have regexes that match the same data

the NANP
N::P::C now correctly identifies US numbers
doesn't just assume a NANP number is US if it's
not assigned to another country
N::P::C no longer uses <DATA>

OFCOM have this week publishedthe allocations they
made a few weeks ago.
Removed is_voip() alias, it didn't work properly
under all the possible ways of invoking it.
