#Release v0.7.2

Updated to be compatible with most recent rstan (version 2.19.2).
Added id_plot_cov function for marginal effects plotting of covariates.
Added id_plot_irf for calculating impulse-response functions for AR(1) models covariates.

#Release v0.7.1

Fixed bug where time series vignette did not show on CRAN screen

#Release v0.7.0

Implement a Gaussian process prior for ideal points to permit semi-parametric inference
Update id_plot_legis_dyn to allow for overlay plots comparing different time series models
Strength over-time model identification using variational inference fits

#Release v0.6.0

Set a stricter threshold for vb to 1e-04 to promote more robust variational inference

#Release v0.5.1

Fixed bugs in plotting functions related to plotting two groups.
Fixed bug in AR(1) model with restricted time variance.
Updated dependencies to rstan 2.18.2.
Added error-catching in covariate creation.

#Release v0.5.0

New models for Poisson, ordinal-graded response, Normal and Log-normal outcomes.
Time-varying ideal point processes: random-walks and auto-regressive priors.
Time-varying plot functions for ideal points.
Hierarchical covariates for ideal points and item/bill discrimination.
Switched from matrix data input to long data frames.

#Release v0.2.9.1

Fixed bugs in id_extract and id_make functions.

#Release v0.2.9

Fixed a bug in the ideal point plot function, and also in the auto_id option in id_estimate.
