.. currentmodule:: gpiozero
Release 1.4.0 (2017-07-26)
==========================
* Pin factory is now :ref:`configurable from device constructors
<changing-pin-factory>` as well as command line. NOTE: this is a backwards
incompatible change for manual pin construction but it's hoped this is
(currently) a sufficiently rare use case that this won't affect too many
people and the benefits of the new system warrant such a change, i.e. the
ability to use remote pin factories with HAT classes that don't accept pin
assignations (`#279`_)
* Major work on SPI, primarily to support remote hardware SPI (`#421`_,
`#459`_, `#465`_, `#468`_, `#575`_)
* Pin reservation now works properly between GPIO and SPI devices (`#459`_,
`#468`_)
* Lots of work on the documentation: :doc:`source/values chapter
<source_values>`, better charts, more recipes, :doc:`remote GPIO
configuration <remote_gpio>`, mock pins, better PDF output (`#484`_, `#469`_,
`#523`_, `#520`_, `#434`_, `#565`_, `#576`_)
* Support for :class:`StatusZero` and :class:`StatusBoard` HATs (`#558`_)
* Added :program:`pinout` command line tool to provide a simple
reference to the GPIO layout and information about the associated Pi
(`#497`_, `#504`_) thanks to Stewart Adcock for the initial work
* :func:`pi_info` made more lenient for new (unknown) Pi models (`#529`_)
* Fixed a variety of packaging issues (`#535`_, `#518`_, `#519`_)
* Improved text in factory fallback warnings (`#572`_)

* Fix issue with :func:`pi_info` breaking on unknown Pi models
Release 1.3.1 (2016-08-31 ... later)
====================================

* Some minor docs changes
Release 1.3.0 (2016-08-31)
==========================
* Added :class:`ButtonBoard` for reading multiple buttons in a single
class (`#340`_)
* Added :class:`Servo` and :class:`AngularServo` classes for controlling
simple servo motors (`#248`_)
* Lots of work on supporting easier use of internal and third-party pin
implementations (`#359`_)

included but a full fix is in the works (`#385`_)
* More work on the documentation (`#320`_, `#295`_, `#289`_, etc.)
Not quite as much as we'd hoped to get done this time, but we're rushing to
make a Raspbian freeze. As always, thanks to the community - your suggestions
and PRs have been brilliant and even if we don't take stuff exactly as is, it's
always great to see your ideas. Onto 1.4!

Release 1.2.0 (2016-04-10)
==========================
* Added :class:`Energenie` class for controlling Energenie plugs (`#69`_)
* Added :class:`LineSensor` class for single line-sensors (`#109`_)
* Added :class:`DistanceSensor` class for HC-SR04 ultra-sonic sensors (`#114`_)
* Added :class:`SnowPi` class for the Ryanteck Snow-pi board (`#130`_)
* Added :attr:`~Button.when_held` (and related properties) to :class:`Button`
(`#115`_)
* Fixed issues with installing GPIO Zero for python 3 on Raspbian Wheezy
releases (`#140`_)
* Added support for lots of ADC chips (MCP3xxx family) (`#162`_) - many thanks
to pcopa and lurch!
* Added support for pigpiod as a pin implementation with
:class:`~gpiozero.pins.pigpio.PiGPIOPin` (`#180`_)
* Many refinements to the base classes mean more consistency in composite
devices and several bugs squashed (`#164`_, `#175`_, `#182`_, `#189`_,
`#193`_, `#229`_)
* GPIO Zero is now aware of what sort of Pi it's running on via :func:`pi_info`
and has a fairly extensive database of Pi information which it uses to
determine when users request impossible things (like pull-down on a pin with
a physical pull-up resistor) (`#222`_)
* The source/values system was enhanced to ensure normal usage doesn't stress
the CPU and lots of utilities were added (`#181`_, `#251`_)
And I'll just add a note of thanks to the many people in the community who
contributed to this release: we've had some great PRs, suggestions, and bug
reports in this version. Of particular note:
* Schelto van Doorn was instrumental in adding support for numerous ADC chips
* Alex Eames generously donated a RasPiO Analog board which was extremely
useful in developing the software SPI interface (and testing the ADC support)
* Andrew Scheller squashed several dozen bugs (usually a day or so after Dave
had introduced them ;)
As always, many thanks to the whole community - we look forward to hearing from
you more in 1.3!
