Thanks to all feedback, I'm very happy to release version 0.29

More speed, more docs, more tests, so more reliability :)
Tested under perl-5.005_04, 5.6.2, 5.8.x-dor and 5.9.5


* Removed an unused 'use Data::Dumper'
* Added $csv->eof () RT 27424
* Two typo's in the doc's (Amsterdam.pm)
* Modified examples/speed.pl to better show the diffs between versions
* Cache attribute settings and regain speed of 0.23! anmd beyond
Relative overall speeds (YMMV, use examples/speed.pl to check),
the 1.0x versions are from Text::CSV_PP.

* Removed prototypes
* Added a SPECIFICATION section to the pod
* Safe caching of eol, and a warning in the docs
* Rewrote t/20_file.t do do actual file IO instead of IO_Scalar fake
* Small optimilisation for parse (juerd)
* Added make target test_speed
* Merged the items from CAVEAT to SPECIFICATION
* Updated the TODO and Release Plan sections
* Speed up internals by using references instead of copies (juerd)
* Reworked error_input, which also had an undetected internal error
* Added IO tests for lexical IO handles and perlio IO to/from scalars


* IMPORTANT CHANGE: new () returns undef if it gets unsupported
attributes. Until now, new ({ esc_char => "\" }) was just
silently ignored. Rejecting it and failing is better than
continuing with false assumptions.
* Added allow_loose_quotes (see doc)
* Added t/65_allow.t
* Added allow_loose_escapes (see doc) RT 15076
* More code cleanup in XS
* Added allow_whitespace (see doc)

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
