SentenceValidator now accepts different combinations of newline and carriage
return characters.
GSV sentence may now contain less than four satellite infos.

SentenceParser; hasValue() now checks fields content explicitly.
DPTSentence; getMaximum() return value changed from int to double.
XDRSentence; fixed fields indexing bug in getMeasurements().
TalkerId enum; added ids BD, GA, GB, GI, GQ, IR, QZ, RC and VM.
NEW FEATURES

Support for MDA sentences; meteorological composite.
Support for MWD sentences; wind speed and direction.
SentenceReader; DataListener interface for receiving any non-NMEA data that
has been read from current data source.
SentenceReader; read interval is now configurable.

Support for XTE sentences; measured cross-track error.
Support for VDR sentences; set and drift.
Support for TTM sentences; tracked target message.
Support for DTM sentences; datum reference.
Support for RPM sentences; engine or shaft revolutions.
Support for VLW sentences; distance traveled through water.
Support for APB sentences; autopilot destination, bearings and heading.

CHANGES
TalkerId; added ids 'GL' and 'GN' for GLONASS sentences.
SentenceReader; UDP packet may now contain multiple lines/sentences.
SentenceParser; setFieldCount() now preserves existing/remaining values.
RMCParser, VTGParser; if optional FAA mode was omitted, sentence field count
is now adjusted before setting the mode.

New Features
AbstractSentenceListener; base class for creating listeners with automatic
sentence type resolving and casting.
Support for ROT sentences (vessel's rate of turn)
Changes
SentenceId; fixed a bug in parseStr(), sentence id length was assumed to be
exactly three chars. This prevented parsing proprietary sentences that may
have ids of different lenghts.
PositionEvent; fixed speed returned in knots instead of km/h.
TalkerId; added new id 'CP' (Channel Pilot).
SentenceReader; refactored and removed duplicate code.
Javadoc improvements
0.6.0
10 years ago
New features
UDP/DatagramSocket support in SentenceReader.
SatelliteInfoProvider; reports all GPS satellite information in single event.
SentenceParser; reset() and setFieldCount(int) methods for resetting and
adjusting the number of data fields.
PositionParser; parsePosition(Position) and setPositionValues(Position)
methods.
Date, Time; added support for time zones and ISO 8601 formatting.
ZDASentence; setTimeAndLocalZone(Time t) for setting time and offset.
Support for XDR sentences; transducer measurements.
Changes
SentenceReader; refactored to better support diffrent data sources, including
some performance tweaks (should take less CPU now). When dispatching events,
all exceptions thrown by SentenceListeners are now logged using the default
java.util.logging.Logger on level WARNING.
SentenceValidator; performance tweaks in regular expressions. Sentence length
is no longer strictly checked, sentence IDs may contain now 3-10 chars.
SentenceParser; due to changes in SentenceValidator, toSentence() does not
automatically check sentence length anymore. Added toSentence(int) method
for validating the length.
TPVProvider and related classes renamed to PositionProvider.
GSASentence; getSatellitesIds() renamed to getSatelliteIds().
Sentence; removed unused constant ADDRESS_FIELD.
Date, Time; fractions of second are now handled. Moved common date/time
parsing and formatting in Date and Time classes. Fixed a bug in Time.toDate()
causing incorrect hour of day.
GLL, GGA, RMC and ZDA parsers; fractions of second are now parsed and
formatted in timestamp fields. When setting/formatting values, three decimals
is used regardless of given precision (padded with zeros as needed).
Position; refactored and removed explicit hemisphere indicators. Hemispheres
are now handled more automatically and indicated by positive and negative
values of latitude and longitude. Affected classes are PositionParser,
GGAParser, GLLParser, RMAParser, RMCParser, WPLParser and Waypoint.
