0.32 Tue Dec 12 23:23:51 EST 2023
  - Expose uuid_type().
  - Expose uuid_variant().
  - Expose uuid_time().
  - Remove dependence on system libraries.
  - Update POD.

0.31 Mon Nov  6 23:43:58 EST 2023
  - Make generated metafiles authoritative and test.
    - Thanks to twata. [rt.cpan.org #150311]
  - Re-enable warnings, per Kwalitee.
  - Rename License to LICENSE, per Kwalitee.
  - Add 'provides' info to metafiles, per Kwalitee.
  - Add test deps, per Kwalitee.
  - Switch to non-system types.
  - Fix make order.
  - Fix misguided config.h.
  - Fix missing prototypes.
  - Fix missing patch.
  - Split to two level diff utils.

0.30 Tue Oct 31 17:16:50 EDT 2023
  - Bump ExtUtils::MakeMaker prereq to 6.64 (first version supporting
    TEST_REQUIRES).
  - Better support for older Win32.
  - Fix trivial build warnings.

0.29 Wed Oct 25 01:15:57 EDT 2023
  - Bump prereq version for Devel::CheckLib to 1.14 to fix problems with
    Strawberry versions 5.18 to 5.28. Earlier Strawberry did not ship
    Devel::CheckLib. Newer versions shipped 1.14 or later.
    - Thanks to twata. [rt.cpan.org #143841]

0.28 Sat Dec 29 00:59:25 EST 2018
  - Add OSSP variant of libuuid. CentOS7 (and presumably other RedHat
    derivatives) have packages for both OSSP and e2fs. Favor e2fs, if
    found, since our implementation of OSSP is probably slower.
    - Thanks to Greg Cox. [rt.cpan.org #128122]

0.27 Fri Sep 23 01:52:00 EDT 2016
  - Update SYNOPSIS to remove ":all". Indiscriminate exports could cause
    problems with other modules, such as File::Copy::copy().
    - Thanks to Slaven Rezic. [rt.cpan.org #118033]

0.26 Sat May  7 02:32:52 EDT 2016
  - Fix broken @ARGV handling in Makefile.PL regarding debug flag.
    - Also changed DEBUG flag to UUID_DEBUG
    - Thanks to gregor herrmann. [rt.cpan.org #114213]

0.25 Mon Mar 14 10:15:55 EDT 2016
  - Changed all prints in Makefile.PL to warns and made both
    unbuffered to match Devel::CheckLib
  - Remove uuid_unparse_lower/upper() calls which don't exist
    on SunOS
  - Ignore TEST_REQUIRES on EUMM < 6.64
  - Try to find correct link lib (-lrpcrt4, -luuid, -lc, in order)
  - Make string argument a char** for uuid_to_string()
  - Add note on Linux UUID packages
  - Moved test.pl to t/test.t and updated to Test::More
  - Changed debug() to emit to stderr to match Devel::CheckLib
  - Removed Makefile.PL verbosity
  - Added switch to Makefile.PL to incite verbosity
  - Become verbose for smokers only on dev releases
  - Added build notice for missing header/libraries
  - Bail out of build if uuid_t size == 0
  - Reorganized header/library search to find wayward OSX
    - Thanks to David Wheeler and William Faulk for pointers and
      lots of patience in testing. [rt.cpan.org #104394]

  - Reverse order of rpc.h and rpcdce.h in UUID.xs (rpc.h first)

0.22 Sun Dec 28 08:42:23 EST 2014
  - Ugh! Forgot to include rpcdce.h in UUID.xs

0.21 Sun Dec 28 08:35:23 EST 2014

0.18 Fri Dec 26 08:20:06 EST 2014
  - Allow for non-true/false return from uuid_from_string() on BSD
  - Remove unused dependency on Config.pm

0.17 Fri Dec 26 05:05:13 EST 2014
  - Removed two nested comments on BSD /* sigh */
  - Let e2fs machines use sv_cmp too (let's see if OSX Frankenbox works)

  - Removed uuid_copy() from BSD. How did that get there? =)
  - Added yet another test for OSX segfault!
  - Check and set -DPERL__UUID__UUID_BUF_SZ=?? in Makefile.PL
    (Should be the same everywhere, right? Right?)

0.14 Wed Dec 24 22:39:42 EST 2014
  - Fix typo in Windows do_uuid() for compiler fail on strawberry
  - Now checking for all header files instead of taking first
  - Added more detail for failed interface search
  - Added check for uuid struct size

0.13 Wed Dec 24 07:45:49 EST 2014
  - Split -luuid search into header file and interface type stages
  - Removed SvPV_nolen everywhere (buffer overflows)

0.12 Wed Dec 24 03:07:50 EST 2014
  - Added support for non-e2fs systems (BSD, OSX, Win)

0.11_01 Tue Dec 23 20:23:29 EST 2014
  - Modified test.pl to hopefully catch where MacOSX fails
  - Heavy mods to Makefile.PL to differentiate between interfaces
  - Makefile.PL *lots* more verbose
  - Lots of #ifdefs added in XS
  - First shot at code that works for BSD style interface

0.11 Mon Dec 22 19:03:09 EST 2014
  - Looks like I've managed to cut the failure reports down a little TOO
    far, so now splitting the search for -luuid into two separate
    phases. The first, which I don't want to deal with right now, tests
    for usability of the -luuid flag by itself. The second, tests for
    usability of individual functions. We'll deal with platforms that
    actually find libuuid first, then MAYBE revisit others.

0.10 Mon Dec 22 11:55:30 EST 2014
  - Added clear() and is_null()
  - Added copy() and compare()
