    - Served through Data::Type::L18N packages.
    [Note] In first line, this is for international error reports. This
    should help promptig ie. Webusers in front of an cgi-form.

  * Renamed everything from 
	Type:: to Data::Type::
	Filter:: to Data::Type::Filter::
	Facet:: to Data::Type::Facet

  [Note] Now we don't pollute anyones namespace. Everything is beneath
  C<Data::Type>.

  * C<Data::Type::IType::UNIVERSAL> got C<alias()> method which returns
    the exported name of that type.

  * 'summary()' is the new name of 'testplan()' (which was 'complains()').
    'testplan' is removed from the export symbols and 'summary() was added
    instead

  * C<pass> and C<fail> renamed to C<ok> and C<nok> (more intuitive).

  * Renamed type "OS::PATH" export name to "PATH"

  * Removed 'alias()' method from IType::UNIVERSAL because export() does the same.

  * Renamed Data::Type::IType::UNIVERSAL to Data::Type::IType.

  * C<summary()> 
    - now returns Data::Type::Entry objects instead of simple aref.
    - new usage: ( VALUE, ENTRY || [ ENTRY, ... ] )

  * t/describe.t renamed to t/summary.t

  * removed C<nok()>
    - C<ok> now takes a bool argument if awaiting success/fail

  * Usage changed: C<verify( $value, $test )>
                   C<dverify( $value, $test )>

  * Data::Type::Exception now has public C<catched> which holds the array
  of preceding exceptions which induced it.

  * @Data::Type::err holds the list of negative exceptions when C<dverify>
  alias C<is> fails. Syntactic sugar:

    unless( shift and is BIO::DNA )
    {
        print Dumper \@Data::Type::err;
    }

  LOCALE
    - Types suffix the l18n language code: TYPE::DE for "de" (german).
    
    [Note] You would need an implicit Data::Type::L18N::de package.
    Only C<type export> names with a correspondent ::L18N::xx package should
    be allowed. This may not make sense when no localization is needed,
    but it will prevent consufion.

    - Data::Type::l18n_list() returns the implemented localized packages

  FACETS
    - move C<Data::Type::Facet::Proxy> to C<Data::Type::Facet>
    - now every Facet isa C<Data::Type::IFacet> (empty)

  API
    - renamed C<verify> to C<valid>
    - Data::Type::Facet::match has new usage
    - Data::Type->filter now wants list of [ 'filtername', @args ]
    - Data::Type::Object::*->test and Data::Type::Filter::*->test now doesnt take any args. Instead Data::Type::value is
      consequently used.
    - added C<isnt> as an alias for C<no is( TYPE )>
    - Relaced 'IType' with 'Interface', so we got 'Data::Type::Interface' instead of 'Data::Type::IType'
      Replaced 'IFacet' with 'Facet::Interface', so we now have 'Data::Type::Facet::Interface'

  REGEXPS
    - Every regex now lives in $Data::Type::Regex::registry
    - Dynamic regex generation via coderef support (with arguments).
    - Access via C<Data::Type::Regex->request( )>. This is a step further to facadeless
    gateway to Regexp::Common (Hopefully will save a lot maintainance time).

	moved Data::Type::Exception related objects to Data/Type/Exception.pm

	added the HTML type (thanks to HMTM::Lint)

	Rename/prefixed the Data::Type::Object:: packages with std_ for Collection
	  - STD::, W3C::, BIO::, CHEM:: and DB::

0.02.01

    [Major] Data::Type::Regex moved to a independant module "Regexp::Box". See CPAN.
