Notes:

YPLib (Your Personal Library) is a set of Perl scripts for managing a library. Once you enter the title and the due-date of a book, YPLib sends you an email a few days before the book is due, supports multiple libraries, lets you specify the number of days you want to be reminded in advance, and the email-address you to which you would like the reminder to be sent, as well as an optional message when you log into the system.

Current stable Version is 0.3
TODO includes:
- fee is calcualted in cents, we want dollars
- maybe add functionality to choose currency
- add functionality for videostores
- the date can't handle leap-years
- YPLib 0.3 is not Y3K compliant ;-)
- find a more elegant solution to handle the date

All feedback, comments, critique, bug-reports, hints and tips are greatly appreciated.

New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.
