I have just uploaded Number::Phone 3.8004 to the CPAN. The changes from
the previous release are:
* bugfix in tests so they still work if you've got Number::Phone::JP
installed;
* new OFCOM allocations
The latter is because OFCOM have changed where they are putting updated
data on their website. The old data has been left in place, unchanged,
while updates are now elsewhere. I've updated the build script to use
the new URLs, and also to whine at me if they appear to change again.
OFCOM also seem to have just stopped publishing their list of area codes
in a machine-readable format, instead the best I can find is several
tables of data in a PDF:
https://www.ofcom.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0013/102613/national-numbering-plan.pdf
So for now I'm falling back to the data from Google's libphonenumber. If
anyone can point me at where OFCOM have hidden the old sabc.txt file do
please let me know!
