Changes: 2001-04-05 Paul Fenwick <pjf@cpan.org> * Updated ASX.pm module to reflect changed location of information on the ASX's website. (Still doesn't help when the ASX site is totally broken, as is too often the case.) * Updated Trustnet.pm module to reflect changes to the Trustnet site. 2001-05-08 Paul Fenwick <pjf@cpan.org> * Applied Leigh Wedding's patch to ASX.pm, after ASX changed their website yet again! All is working happily once more. Thanks Leigh. * Added Tobias Vancura's F::Q::Fool module. * Added Fool as a automatically loaded loaded module from F::Quote.pm. 2001-05-09 Paul Fenwick <pjf@cpan.org> * Fixed strange behaviour which could occur when using FQ_LOAD_QUOTELETS environment variable. This now works as intened. * Added Jasmin Bertovic's Cdnfundlibrary module. 2001-05-10 Volker Stuerzl * Updated VWD.pm to account for changes in VWD website. 2001-05-11 Paul Fenwick <pjf@cpan.org> * Tweaked VWD.pm to strip whitespace from currency and remove asterisks from names. 2001-06-04 Brent Neal <brentn@users.sourceforge.net> * Fixed Tiaacref.pm to reflect new CGIs at www.tiaa-cref.org New symbols available for the module - check the POD documentation for more info. 2001-06-25 Linas Vepstas * Added Tdwaterhouse module from James A. Treacy. 2001-06-26 Paul Fenwick <pjf@cpan.org> * Added AEX module courtesy of Rob Sessink. * Updated ASX module to use the new (again!) ASX website. * Updated ASX module to use HTML::TableExtract. Code is much simplier now. * Updated Fidelity module to make use of the new fidelity website. * Updated the Fidelity test to always test the fidelity_direct method. * Bumped version number on F::Q to 1.06. * Updated Trustnet module to assume GBP if no currency explicitly shown. * Updated Trustnet test because one of the funds we were looking for had changed its name, causing the test to fail. * Added AEX test suite to repository. * Removed failover into Fool.pm support, as I'd like to do more testing before it enters the failover system. * Updated the FAQ. * Updated the INSTALL file. * Moved regression tests from /t to /test. Updated MANIFEST file accordingly. This means that autoamtic installs from CPAN won't run the regression tests, which was causing installation to fail on some systems. * Updated lists of copyright holders, SEE ALSO sections in man-pages. * CVSTAG: finance_quote_1_06
