Changes in version 0.7.1 (2026-10-18)                  

  - First release on CRAN. Package metadata only: a named maintainer,
    the 'NameGender' web service quoted and linked in the description,
    and NameGender listed as copyright holder. No change to the
    functions.

                        Changes in version 0.7.0                        

  - New ng_name_check() and ng_name_check_bulk() say whether a name
    typed into a form looks like a real person's name: assessment
    ("plausible", "suspicious", "implausible"), score (0-100), signals
    and evidence. It never calls a name fake; use it to flag records,
    not to reject people automatically. Surnames are judged by their
    shape only. One credit per name.

                        Changes in version 0.6.0                        

  - New ng_salutation() and ng_salutation_bulk() return a ready-made
    salutation (formal, informal, neutral) for a name, in 16 languages
    and regional variants. One credit per name. When the gender is not
    certain the neutral form is used; form and reason say why.
    best_guess and ai_fallback do not apply and are not accepted.

                        Changes in version 0.5.0                        

  - ng_name(), ng_email(), ng_username() and ng_bulk() take locale and
    ip as country hints when country is not given (priority country >
    locale > ip). Responses carry country_source; for ng_bulk() it is on
    the envelope, not on each row.
