Release v0.4.0

Release v0.4.0

We are proudly announcing the release of version oh point four point oh (v0.4.0) of num2words!

With this version, we are getting closer to a more stable release; next up on the roadmap: add support for more languages! My focus is going to be French and German as I am fluent with the first and comfortable with the second.

We are also looking for volunteers to contribute and add new supported languages. Any help is greatly appreciated. Please contact Ballasi or open a discussion in case you are interested.

Support for more languages is to come.
