## v1.3.0 (2016-07-22)

Sorry for the long time since the last release. We'll be trying to maintain a
more rapid release schedule going forwards.

- precision issue fixed with deserializing numbers
- support added for deserializing into a 'root' dictionary (`dictionaryOfModelsFromDictionary:error:`, etc.)
- lazy collection-type conversion (`ConvertOnDemand`) is no longer supported
- deprecated two way key mapping deprecated - only Model->JSON has ever worked anyway
- deprecated all networking support
- deprecated the global key mapper
- deprecated `Index` protocol
- deprecated `protocolForArrayProperty:` in favor of `classForCollectionProperty:`
- modulemap file added to handle use as a framework better
- success return value added to `mergeFromDictionary:useKeyMapping:error:`
- JSONModel has now been moved out into its own GitHub organization, etc. - now maintained by multiple people

### Potential Breaking Changes

- new behavior for handling null values when serializing:
	- values of `NSNull` will now always `null` in JSON output
	- values of `nil` will now never be included in JSON output

- added support for multiple custom setters
- fixed `-hash` implementation
- added `responseData` property to `JSONModelError`
- added support for creating a key mapper with exceptions (`+mapper:withExceptions:`)
- locks now used in key mapper implementation for additional safety
