----------------

  - Use allocated SWI & error chunks.
  - Fix issues in 8bit encoding handling.
  - First public release.

0.03 22-Jan-2005
----------------

  - Add Iconv_Convert SWI with improved interface.
  - Deprecate Iconv_Iconv SWI.

0.05 27-Jun-2005
----------------

  - Improve encoding alias support, using external data file.
  - Add StubsG build for A9home users.

0.06 05-Nov-2005
----------------

  - Modified menu creation API to store indirected text in a
    user-provided buffer. This change is backwards incompatible.

0.07 11-Feb-2006
----------------

  - Corrected output values for E2BIG errors.
  - Fixed input pointer update after successful conversion.

0.08 11-Mar-2007
----------------

  - Tightened up parameter checking in various places.
  - Improve aliases hash function.
  - Make 8bit write function's return values match encoding_write
    with encoding_WRITE_STRICT set.
  - Fix bug in 8bit writing which resulted in the remaining buffer
    size being reduced even if nothing was written.
  - Improve support for endian-specific Unicode variants.
  - Work around issue in UnicodeLib where remaining buffer size is
    reduced if an attempt is made to write an unrepresentable character.
  - Add rudimentary //TRANSLIT support - simply replaces with '?' for now.
  - Make UnicodeLib handle raw ISO-8859-{1,2,9,10,15} and not attempt
    ISO-6937-2-25 shift sequences.
  - Remove StubsG build as A9home now has a C99 capable C library.
  - Overhaul documentation.

0.09 20-Nov-2008
----------------

  - Restructured source tree into cross-platform and RO-specific parts.
  - New build system to go with this.
  - Fixes for compiling with GCC4.
  - Introduce *Iconv command which performs command line conversion.
  - Fixes/improvements to the handlers for:
      + US-ASCII
      + UTF-8
      + ISO-8859-7
      + ISO-8859-8
      + ISO-8859-11
      + Windows-1256
      + MacRoman
      + JIS X 0208
      + JIS X 0212
      + KS X 1001
      + EUC-JP
      + Any ISO-2022 based charset that uses a 94x94 table in GR
      + Johab
      + ShiftJIS
  - Add support for ISO-8859-16 (Latin 10)
  - Significantly improve detection and reporting of error conditions

0.10 29-Nov-2008
----------------

  - Fixes to the *Iconv command parameter parsing
  - Ensure *Iconv outputs all converted data when the input is invalid
  - Fix handling of illegal UTF-8 byte sequences
  - Fix handling of incomplete multibyte input sequences.

0.11 04-Jan-2011
----------------

  - Detect missing mapping file when using 8bit codecs. This prevents spurious
    memory exhaustion errors.
  - Toolchain used to build 0.10 turns out to have produced broken code.
  - Minor additions to the charset alias mapping file.

0.12 20-Jan-2013
---------------

  - Master alias mapping file now lives in ROOL repository.
  - Correct handling of trailing valid shift sequences. Previously would
    erroneously report EINVAL, instead of silently accepting them.
  - Add proper transliteration behaviour when requested using //TRANSLIT.
