Changes for version 2.1
-----------------------

The VTL 2.1 version is a minor one and contains the following changes
in respect to 2.0:

i. typos and errors in the text and/or in the examples have been fixed;

ii. new operators have been defined: time operators (datediff, dateadd,
year/month/quarter/dayofmonth/dayofyear, daystoyear, daystomonth,
durationtodays), case operator (simple extension of if-then-else),
random operator (generating a random decimal number >= 0 and < 1)

iii. some changes have been introduced: the cast operator will have
only explicit or implicit mask (no optional mask not allowed),
some assumptions have been taken in the ordering for some use
cases, the default window clause for analytic operators has been
changed to be compliant with the SQL standard behaviour.

A new document (Technical Notes) has been added to the documentation
to support VTL implementation.
