Release 2.08
Unicode::String now provide utf16le() and utf32le() constructors.
Corresponding methods also available.
Unicode::CharName updated with Unicode 4.1 data.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.

Release 2.07
Don't let the $^W test get confused by lexical warnings.
These are experimental modules to handle various Unicode issues.
They were made before perl included native UTF8 support.
The current set of modules are:
Unicode::String - represent strings of Unicode chars
Unicode::CharName - look up character names
Unicode::Map8 - mapping tables towards 8-bit char sets
(the Unicode::Map8 module is distributed separately)
