----------------------
Zint is a suite of programs to allow easy encoding of data in any of the wide range of public domain
barcode standards and to allow integration of this capability into your own programs. This version

PROJECT STATUS
--------------
With the release of version 2.2 of this project the status will change to a "maintainance mode".
This means that for the near future I do not expect to be adding new features and development work
will consist of fixing bugs when they appear. In the long term the only advances planned are the
addition of six more public domain barcode standards: Dot Code A, PosiCode, SuperCode, DataStrip,
Aztec Mesas and Grid Matrix. If you would like to see this process accelerated then please consider
donating to this project at http://sourceforge.net/project/project_donations.php?group_id=199350
If you would like to see this project expanded in other ways then your suggestions are very
welcome. Contact details are given below. If you want to expand it yourself there are some
ideas below and I am very happy to answer questions regarding the code or the barcode standards
which are supported.
Contrary to previous thoughts this project is very much active again. This release signifies the
first step in a complete re-think of the API. If you have written applications which take advantage
of the Zint API then please make appropriate alterations. Details are given on the news page of the
project website.
Work is now continuing on making the library more useful for those who want to encode characters
beyond the ASCII set. Also in the plan is to bring QR Code encoding within the library and thereby
remove the dependence on libqrencode for this. Once this is achieved then Grid Matrix will be the
next symbology to be added. By this time I hope to have achived a much more smooth mechanism for
encoding both Japanese and Chinese character sets.
