Aztec Code

Would be nice to have support for Aztec Code too (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aztec_Code)

+1, very nice 2d code since it doesn't require a quiet zone

Hi, I would love to implement it but I dont have all required information to so so :(

For me it is solved by using Mint (binary) to generate the Aztec barcode. Not as nice as doing it in Go but my knowledge of Go is not good enough to port an existing Aztec encoder to it.

I've started porting the aztec code generation from zxing.
I would normally not do this because I started this project to learn how different barcodes are encoded from scratch.
But I guess its better to learn from other peoples code, then not learning anything :)

Cool! I would definitely switch to using Aztec generation through go lang!

I learned a lot by porting PDF417 barcodes from PHP to Go :)

Hey, please test this and let me know if there are any issues...

Seems working for my use case (encoding 2 space-padded int64 seperated with a dash). This is much appreciated!!
