* Warning: For a seamless upgrade, upgrade to version 3 *

* encoder! *
****************************************************************
3.005 Jan 05 2015
* Build improvements related to char signedness being platform
dependent.
3.004 Dec 27 2014
* Performance optimizations and other miscellaneous changes.
* Build improvements.
* Win32 fixes for weakrefs.
3.003 Oct 19 2014
* Niko Tyni fixed the 64-bit big endian Sereal bug! (Yay Niko!)
* Setup META.yml correctly so that certain dependencies are
marked as being test dependencies and not build or run-time
dependencies.
* Allow one to build against an externally supplied version
of csnappy or miniz. Thanks to Petr Písař <ppisar@redhat.com>
3.002 Aug 20 2014
Summary of changes from 3.001 - 3.002
- Introduce "canonical" option to encoder
- Introduce "canonical_refs" option to encoder
* Test Infra Changes
- Split up bulk tests to speed up testing and make it easier
to see when a failure is restricted to a specific option.
* Big-Endian Support
- Improved support for Big-Endian machines. We now build and pass test
on Sparc and HP-UX and other platforms with big-endian or strict
alignedness requirements. Much thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi,
Gregor Herrmann, and H. Merijn Brand for for their assistance with
this.
- We still have issues with s390x (Z/Os) with Sereal. If someone wants
to help it would be appreciated.
3.001
- Upgrade to version 3 of the protocol
* Add Zlib compression support to the protocol
* Add Zlib support to Encoder/Decoder
* Add CANONICAL_UNDEF tag to represent PL_sv_undef
* Change magic header so it is trivial to detect
and reject utf8 encoded Sereal packets.
- Change how we serialize variables which have more
than one of IOK, NOK, and POK set. In general we
favour the numeric form, with the exception of when
all three are set when we favour the string form
(this is to handle engineering notation like "0E0"
where numeric and string equivalence may differ)

- Introduce "set_readonly_scalars" option to decoder
* Bug fixes

strings into the same target SV. See new test t/550_decode_into.t

2015-04-01: Version 7.2.1
* Fix: Skip the GB18030 tests when the system does not support the
Chinese locale with GB18030 character encoding.
* Fix: Small corrections in the manual in section GB18030 and OPTIONS -m.
This is a maintenance release. It primarily includes bug fixes and
build fixes since the 0.7.0 release with no new features. That
said, the most notable aspect of this release is that it is buildable
with the version 0.9.0 of the Ixion library which was just released
a week ago. So, if you are trying to package and distribute the
newly-released Ixion library but are unable to do so because of
Orcus not being buildable with it, you might be interested in this
release.
Changelog:
2015-02-11:
Version 7.2.
New Japanese translation of the UI messages.
Support Chinese GB18030 locale.
On Unix/Linux convert UTF-16 to the locale encoding.
It is no longer required that the locale encoding is UTF-8.
Changelog:
11/9/2014:
- AppleWorks/ClarisWorks parser[draw]:
try to send master pages on each page of the final documents
try to do not cut shapes, pictures which are on several pages (by creating bigger pages)
10/29/2014:
- MacDraw Pro: add a parser for MacDraw Pro v1
-------- version 0.3.4 (start) -------------
10/2/2014:
- RagTime v5-v6: begin to find the main structures in a document, to be continued...
- fix some coverity problems.

fonts.
