RELEASE NOTES:
--------------

NEW FEATURES:

- new character set "<phoneticx>" in addition to "<phonetic>" for generating
  phonetic passwords consisting of mixed-case letters, i.e., each letter will
  be either lower-case or upper-case (chosen randomly); this effectively
  increases the password security by 1.0 bit per character (thanks to Jimmy
  for the suggestion!)

CHANGES & IMPROVEMENTS:

- when generating phonetic passwords with the options "Include at least one
  upper-case letter" and "Exclude ambiguous characters" activated, PWGen no
  longer checks which upper-case letters are not allowed and uses all 26 letters
  instead (reason: the "Exclude ..." option is not supposed to be effective
  for phonetic passwords)
- internal change: "Advanced password options" (which can be TRUE or FALSE)
  are stored as "bit masks" (integer values) instead of strings of 0s and 1s
