The <filename>isn</filename> module provides data types for the following

international product numbering standards: EAN13, UPC, ISBN (books), ISMN
13-
(music), and ISSN (serials). Numbers are validated on input, and correctly
14-
hyphenated on output.
13+
(music), and ISSN (serials). Numbers are validated on input according to a
14+
hard-coded list of prefixes; this list of prefixes is also used to hyphenate
15+
numbers on output. Since new prefixes are assigned from time to time, the
16+
list of prefixes may be out of date. It is hoped that a future version of
17+
this module will obtained the prefix list from one or more tables that
18+
can be easily updated by users as needed; however, at present, the
19+
list can only be updated by modifying the source code and recompiling.
20+
Alternatively, prefix validation and hyphenation support may be
21+
dropped from a future version of this module.
