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

2001-05-11 Paul Fenwick <pjf@cpan.org>

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.
