-## Changelog for `diaspy`, unofficla Diaspora\* API for Python
+## Changelog for `diaspy`, unofficial DIASPORA\* interface for Python
This changelog file follows few rules:
*docstrings* -> *docs/* -> *manual/*
+----
+
+#### Known issues
+
+* __bug__: `diaspy` has problems/can't connect to pods using SNI (this is an issue with requests/urllib3/python),
+
+
+----
+
+#### Version `0.4.3`:
+
+* __new__: `people.User().fetchprofile()` will issue a warning when user cannot be found on current pod,
+* __new__: `settings.Profile` is now loaded during initialization (can be switched off),
+
+* __fix__: fixed a bug in `__repr__()` method in `people.User()` object,
+
+
+----
+
+#### Version `0.4.2` (2013-12-19):
+
+This version has some small incompatibilities with `0.4.1` so read Changelog carefully.
+
+* __new__: `diaspy.people.User._fetchstream()` method,
+* __new__: `diaspy.people.Me()` object representing current user,
+* __new__: `**kwargs` added to `diaspy.streams.Generic.json()` methdo to give developers control over the creation of JSON,
+* __new__: `.getHCard()` method added to `diaspy.people.User()`,
+
+
+* __upd__: `diaspy.connection.Connection.login()` modifies connection object in-place **and** returns it (this allows more fluent API),
+* __upd__: `diaspy.connection.Connection.login()` no longer returns status code (if login was unsuccessful it'll raise an exception),
+* __upd__: `diaspy.connection.Connection._login()` no longer returns status code (if login was unsuccessful it'll raise an exception),
+* __upd__: better error message in `diaspy.models.Post().__init__()`,
+* __upd__: `data` variable in `diaspy.models.Post()` renamed to `_data` to indicate that it's considered private,
+* __upd__: after deleting a post `Activity` stream is purged instead of being refilled (this preserves state of stream which is not reset to last 15 posts),
+* __upd__: `filterByIDs()` method in `Aspects` stream renamed to `filter()`,
+
+
+* __rem__: `diaspy.connection.Connection.getUserInfo()` moved to `diaspy.connection.Connection.getUserData()`,
+* __rem__: `fetch` parameter removed from `diaspy.connection.Connection.getUserData()`,
+
+
+* __dep__: `max_time` parameter in `diaspy.streams.*.more()` method is deprecated,
+
+* __fix__: this release should fix the bug which prevented diaspy from working with some pods (e.g. diasp.eu and joindiaspora.com),
+

-#### Version `0.4.1` (2013-08-):
+#### Version `0.4.1` (2013-09-12):
+
+Login and authentication procedure backend received major changes in this version.
+There are no longer `username` and `password` variables in `Connection` object.
+Instead, credentials are stored (together with the token) in single variable `_login_data`.
+This is preserved until you call `login()` at which point credentials are erased and
+only token is left -- it can be obtained by calling `repr(Connection)`.
+
+Also, this release is compatible with DIASPORA\* 0.2.0.0 but should still support
+pods running on older versions.
+
+And the test suite was updated. Yay!
