Porters,
I have just released Encode-2.09, AKA GAAS special. Gisle, thank you for all the reports and patches. Wish they were done before 5.8.6 :)

=head1 Changes
$Revision: 2.9 $ $Date: 2004/12/03 19:16:53 $ ! Encode.pm Encode.xs Addressed " :encoding(utf8) broken in perl-5.8.6". Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ! Encode.pm Addressed "(de|en)code($valid_encoding, undef) does not warn". http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=8723 ! Encode.pm t/Encode.t Addressed "Can't encode URI". When a reference is fed to (en|de)code, Encode now stringifies instead of returning undef. http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=8725 ! Encode.xs t/fallback.t Addressed "FB_HTMLCREF and FB_XMLCREF for the UTF-8 decoder". http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=8694 ! Encode.pm Addressed "s/digit/number/". http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=8695 ! Encode.pm Addressed "while (defined(read )) { ... } is an infinite loop". http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=8696 ! Encode.pm Addressed "What the heck is UCM?". Document fixed so that it no longer contains "UCM-Based Encodings". http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=8697
=head1 NOTE
I am in the middle of moving out and I will not settle till Dec. 10th or so. So please be patient if you ever RT'd or mailed me on Encode.
