What's new in ArPHP 1.0 (release date: Feb 24, 2008)
-----------------------------------------------------

* First beta code of this Arabic class which is collection of sub classes published 
  before in phpclasses.org repository:
  http://kshamaa.users.phpclasses.org/browse/author/189864.html
  but this has more comments in code block as well as standard code format and 
  better character set handles for input and output. The strategic aim of this is 
  to rich PEAR standards to add this class into that library.

* Add ArQuery, ArMktime, ArAutoSummarize, ArWordTag, ArGlyphs, and ArSoundex sub classes.

* Add examples scripts.

* Add the first draft of standard documentation.
