	* [r1606] DESCRIPTION, inst/NEWS: Update for gdata 2.12.0
	* [r1605] R/aggregate.table.R, man/aggregate.table.Rd:
	  'stats::aggregate' was made into a generic on 27-Jan-2010, so
	  that
	  attempting to call 'aggregate' on a 'table' object will now
	  incorrectly call 'aggregate.table'. Since 'aggregate.table' can
	  be
	  replaced by a call to tapply using two index vectors, e.g.
	  aggregate.table(x, by1=a, by2=b, mean)
	  can be replaced by
	  tapply(x, INDEX=list(a, b), FUN=mean),
	  the 'aggregate.table' function will now display a warning that it
	  is depreciated and recommending the equivalent call to tapply. It
	  will be removed entirely in a future version of gdata.
	* [r1604] .Rinstignore: Don't ignore .Rnw files, but do ignore .svn
	  files.

	  that read.xls() can properly handle
	  files with alternative encodings. latin-1.xls contains each of

	  the body of the file.
	* [r1596] R/read.xls.R: Change code to have R read the csv/tab data

	* [r1565] R/xls2sep.R, inst/perl/xls2csv.pl, man/read.xls.Rd,
	  tests/test.read.xls.R, tests/test.read.xls.Rout.save: read.xls()
	  and supporting functions now allow blank lines to be
	  preserved, rather than skipped, by supplying the argument
	  "blank.lines.skip=FALSE". The underlying perl function has been
	  extended to suppor this via an optional "-s" argument which, when
	  present, *preserves* blank lines during the conversion.

2012-06-13  warnes

	  (documenting sheetNames/sheetCount) and updated NAMESPACE file.
	* [r1388] inst/NEWS: fixed spacing problem in NEWS

2010-01-23  warnes

	* [r1387] inst/perl/xls2csv.pl: Check if parsing the xls file
	  succeeds... Current code doesn't handle new XML-based format
	* [r1386] inst/perl/Spreadsheet/XLSX: Remove perl
	  'Spreadsheet:XLSX' module since it depends on Compress-Raw-Zlib,
	  which probably won't be available on most machines, and I don't
	  have time to figure out how to get R to build it properly when
	  gdata is installed.
	* [r1385] inst/perl/Spreadsheet/XLSX,
	  inst/perl/Spreadsheet/XLSX/Fmt2007.pm,

	  'Spreadsheet:XLSX' module to support new Excel XML format files

	  delimited files using the same code, other minor changes.

	  files
	* [r1378] inst/perl/xls2csv.pl, inst/perl/xls2tab.pl,

	  - Use tab-delimiter and .tsv or .tab extension if called with the
	  name
	  xls2tsv.pl or xls2tab.pl, respectively. This allows a single
	  source
	  file and two symlinks to be used intstead of maintaining several
	  almost-identical files.
	  - Allow selection of sheets by name
	  - Provide better error checking
	  - Other code improvements
	* [r1377] inst/perl/sheetCount.pl, inst/perl/sheetNames.pl: Add
	  perl scripts to extract worksheet names and sheet count from
