12 Simplified and Traditional Chinese, and CN in Simplified Chinese.
16 - Fixes for PhoneNumberMatcher to be more restrictive in valid mode and not match numbers
17 surrounded by Latin characters. This ensures, for example, the string abc123456789acg will not be

19 - Enable PhoneNumberUtil to handle all digits, rather than a subset
20 - Fix for AYTF issue36 and improvement for US AYTF behaviour.

73 (calling) codes and region codes.
74 == Non-backwards-compatible API changes: ==

76 library is based around region codes.

89 falling back to a default calling code otherwise (formatNationalNumberWithPreferredCarrierCode).
90 - We now store the preferred domestic carrier code used when the user calls parseAndKeepRawInput
91 - New functionality to extract phone-numbers from text (findNumbers). This is just the first
92 version - it does not extract ALPHA numbers such as 0800 CALL ME, or numbers where alternate
93 endings are specified (such as 03-331 6005/6006).

121 an NSN_MATCH, instead of SHORT_NSN_MATCH.
122 == Note Non-backwards-compatible API change here! ==
123 This will no longer throw a NumberParseException - instead we will return NOT_A_NUMBER if one
124 or other of the numbers provided do not match.
125 - New number-type UAN now supported in the code. This represents Company Numbers or Universally
128 - Bug-fixes and updates for the following countries: AG, AZ, BA, BE, CA, CU, ES, FI, GB, GD, GG,
