### 0.1.0
* **BREAKING CHANGES**
    * Previously the ruby_odata `Service.execute` and `Service.save_changes` used to return a single entity object if there was only one result returned. Now, the results are always an Enumerable (except in the case of boolean results like a delete), so if you just need one result, use the `first` method on the result set
* New Features
    * Support for partial results (thanks arienmalec)
    * Added support for single layer inheritance (thanks to [Scott](http://odetocode.com/Blogs/scott/archive/2010/07/11/odata-and-ruby.aspx))
    * Added support for querying links (see [Issue 10](https://github.com/visoft/ruby_odata/issues/10))
    * Added support for adding links between entities (add_link)
    * Added support for lazy loading
    * Added a convenience method (`first`) for accessing a single result by id
    * Added basic reflection of the entity model via the ruby_odata service
    * Added the ability to create ruby_odata models in a specified namespace to prevent conflicts with local models
    * Added the ability to call function imports exposed by the WCF Data Service
  * Other
    * Changed the test project (for Cucumber integration tests) to use SQL Compact 4, Entity Framework 4.1, and WCF Data Services October 2011 CTP
    * Added [Pickle](https://github.com/ianwhite/pickle) integration to simplify Cucumber step definitions

### 0.1.1
* New Features
    * Added the `count` method (to `QueryBuilder`) for returning a count from an OData service
    * Added the `navigate` method (to `QueryBuilder`) in order to handle filtering of children

* Bug Fixes
    * Escaped IDs in queries where the ID is a string with spaces

* Other
    * Goodbye RDoc; Hello Markdown/YARD
    * Refactored exceptions to use proper error classes
    * Integrated [Guard](https://github.com/guard/guard) into the test suite for continuous testing
    * Integrated [VCR](https://github.com/myronmarston/vcr) into test suite in order to run Cucumber steps without running the test server.
