+Feb 03, 2014 - Added read support for JPX free, number list, data reference,
     fragment table, and fragment list boxes.  Palette box now a 2D numpy array
     instead of a list of 1D arrays.  JP2 super box constructors now take
-    optional box list  argument.
+    optional box list  argument.  Fixed bug where JPX files with more than one

 Jan 28, 2014 - v0.5.10  Fixed bad warning when reader requirements box mask
     length is unsupported.
