- Better support for weeks of the year
Added the Week1ofYear config variable and deprecated the Jan1Week1
variable. The first week of the year can now be specified much more
easily.
- Support for the standard POSIX strftime directives in printf
The Date::Manip::Date::printf method uses a set of directives which
is similar, but not identical, to the POSIX strftime directives.
A new config variable Use_POSIX_Printf has been added. If set, the
printf method will use the POSIX strftime directives more fully
(see the PRINTF DIRECTIVES section in the Date::Manip::Date POD for
more information).

Bug where Date::Manip::TZ::convert wasn't returning an error code
if an invalid date was passed in. GitHub #47.
- Time zone fixes
Updated the windows timezone aliases. They were out-of-date. See
GitHub #46.

In the test scripts, changed RELEASE_TESTING variable. Now use a
release-specific testing variable rather than RELEASE_TESTING. See
GitHub #17 in my Locale-Codes module for details.

- Change warn to carp
All warnings are now issued with the carp command rather than warn.
Requested in GitHup pull request #18, but that request was not used
because it only changed the uses in the Date::Manip::Date module.
- Bug fixes
Fixed a bug where the next/prev Date::Manip::Recur methods gave
incorrect results when there are no dates that match the criteria.
(GitHub #36)
- Time zone fixes
There were no new timezone fixes on 2021-06-01 or 2021-09-01, so no
releases made then.

- Removed travis file from the tarball
The tarball had a .travis.yml file in it that wasn't in the MANIFEST
file. Since the MANIFEST file is automatically generated by the perl
mkmanifest tool, since it didn't see the .travis.yml file, I have
excluded it from the tarball. Reported by Mohammad S Anwar on GitHub

- Fixed math on non-64-bit architectures
Much of the math in Date::Manip::Base is in a 'use integer' section.
This math can overflow in some cases in non-64-bit architectures.
Fixed the cases where this would reasonably occur. Reported by
Daniel Albers (GitHub #22). Also reported and tested in RT 126052.
- Bug in normalizing estimated business deltas
While working on the non-64-bit issue, it uncovered a bug where
normalizing estimated business deltas was wrong. It had never been
reported, and it was only off by a couple seconds in some rare
situations.
- do not exclude 32-bit platforms from build, the issue is solved
via RT bug 126052 [bsc#1086297]

- Fixed recurrence bug
The fix in the previous version for a rare recurrence problem broke
another recurrence form. It is now corrected. Michael Schout (GitHub
#20)
- Fixed version problem
The wrong version was included in two files for some reason. This is
fixed.
- Documentation fixes
Fixed a grammatical error reported by Xavier Guimard (GitHub #19).
6.71 2018-06-01
- Fixed an extremely rare problem with recurrences
It is possible to specify a recurrence that never produces a valid
date. In these cases, looking for dates went into an infinite loop.
The MaxRecurAttempts config variable was added which will stop that
from happening. If no occurrence was found, an error condition will
be set. Dean Hamstead (RT 123708)
- Changes file supported
It was requested that I include a valid Changes file. I wrote a
simple script to convert the Change6.pod file into a valid Change
file. The Changes6.pod file is still the canonical source of this
information! Requested by H. Merijn Brand

documentation is no longer generated for Date::Manip::TZ::* and
Date::Manip::Offset::* modules.

Added the $mode argument to ParseDateDelta
The ParseDateDelta function (in functional interface) did not allow you
to force a parsed delta to semi or approx where appropriate. This
was added. Based on RT 82991).
Added get_config method
The get_config method was added to all classes. Suggested by Philippe Poilbarbe.
Language fixes
Fixed a German language problem. Gosta Oelstrom
Documentation fixes
Documented workaround for dmake problem in strawberry perl. Discussed on

with a very uncommon recurrence format would not work correctly.

Time zone fixes:
Newest zoneinfo data (tzdata 2011b).
Fixed a bug where the gmtoff method of getting the local timezone was broken.
Fixed the 'env' method of determining the local time zone to allow the
value to be an offset of seconds since UTC. This allows the VMS
SYS$TIMEZONE_DIFFERENTIAL variable to work correctly. Martin Zinser.
Removed the SYS$TIMEZONE_RULE method from VMS since the value stored there
is not the name of a timezone (it's a rule in a non-standard format). Based
on discussion with Martin Zinser.
Language fixes:
The module will now die if a language module cannot be loaded (most
likely due to a YAML::Syck issue). Based on discussion with Martin Zinser.
Documentation fixes:
Added a sample config file document. Based on discussion with Rich Duzenbury.
