== 1.8 / 2015-10-26
* 1 minor enhancement:
* Add an optional +alpha+ parameter to all #css_rgba calls. Thanks to Luke
Bennellick (@bennell) and Alexander Popov (@AlexWayfer) for independently
implemented submissions. Merged from #15.
* 2 minor bug fixes:
* Improve constant detection to prevent incorrectly identified name
collisions with various other libraries such as Azure deployment tools.
Based on work by Matthew Draper (@matthewd) in #24.
* Prevent Color.equivalent? comparisons from using non-Color types for
comparison. Fix provided by Benjamin Guest (@bguest) in #18.
* 1 governance change
* This project now has a {Code of Conduct}[Code-of-Conduct_rdoc.html]

== 1.7.1 / 2014-06-12
* Minor enhancements:
* Renamed Color::RGB::BeccaPurple to Color::RGB::RebeccaPurple as stipulated
by Eric Meyer. http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2014/06/19/rebeccapurple/
For purposes of backwards compatibility, the previous name is still
permitted, but its use is strongly discouraged, and it will be removed in
the Color 2.0 release.
== 1.7 / 2014-06-12
* Minor enhancements:
* Added Color::RGB::BeccaPurple (#663399) in honour of Rebecca Meyer, the
daughter of Eric Meyer, who passed away on the 7th of June, 2014. Her
favourite colour was purple. #663399becca

* Bug fixes:
* Changed the homepage in the gem to point to github.com instead of
RubyForge, which has been shut down. Fixes#10, reported by @voxik.
== 1.6 / 2014-05-19
* Major enhancements:
* Aaron Hill (@armahillo) implemented the CIE Delta E 94 method by which an
RGB colour can be asked for the closest matching colour from a list of
provided colours. Fixes#5.
* To implement #closest_match and #delta_e94, conversion methods for sRGB to
XYZ and XYZ to L*a*b* space were implemented. These should be considered
experimental.
* Tooling fixes:
* Ensured that the gem manifest was up-to-date. Fixes#4 reported by @boutil.
Thanks!
* Fixed problems with Travis builds. Note that Ruby 1.9.2 is no longer
tested. Rubinius remains in a “failure-tolerated” mode.
* Color 1.6 is, barring security patches, the last release of Color that will
support Ruby 1.8.
== 1.5.1 / 2014-01-28
* color 1.5 was a yanked release.
* Minor enhancements:
* Added new methods to Color::RGB to make it so that the default defined
colours can be looked up by hex, name, or both.
* Added a method to Color::RGB to extract colours from text by hex, name, or
both.
* Added new common methods for colour names. Converted colours do not retain
names.
* Restructured color comparisons to use protocols instead of custom
implementations. This makes it easier to implement new colour classes. To
make this work, color classes should +include+ Color only need to implement
<tt>#coerce(other)</tt>, <tt>#to_a</tt>, and supported conversion methods
(e.g., <tt>#to_rgb</tt>).
* Added @daveheitzman’s initial implementation of an RGB contrast method as
an extension file: <tt>require 'color/rgb/contrast'</tt>. This method and
the value it returns should be considered experimental; it requires further
examination to ensure that the results produced are consistent with the
contrast comparisons used in Color::Palette::MonoContrast.
* Reducing duplicated code.
* Bug Fixes:
* Moved +lib/color/rgb-colors.rb+ to +lib/color/rgb/colors.rb+. This should
have no impact in general.
* Improved the way that named colors are specified internally.
* Fixed bugs with Ruby 1.8.7 that may have been introduced in color 1.4.2.
* Tooling Changes:
* Added simplecov for test coverage analysis.
* Modernized Travis CI support.
== 1.4.2 / 2013-06-30
Maintenance:
* Modernized Hoe installation of Color, removing some dependencies.
* Switched to Minitest.
* Turned on Travis CI.
* Started using Code Climate.
* Small code formatting cleanup that touched pretty much every file.
* Use lang/ruby/gem.mk instead of misc/rubygems/rubygem.mk.
* Add LICENSE.
* Remove default value of GEM_BUILD.
* Ajust new ruby package's framework.
== Color 1.4.1 / 2010.02.03
* Imported to github.
* Converted to Hoe 2.5 spec format.
The capabilities of the Color library are limited to pure mathematical
manipulation of the colors based on color theory without reference to
color profiles (such as sRGB or Adobe RGB). For most purposes, when
working with the RGB and HSL colors, this won't matter. However, some
color models (like CIE La*b) are not supported because Color does not
yet support color profiles, giving no meaningful way to convert colors
in absolute color spaces (like La*b, XYZ) to non-absolute color spaces
(like RGB).
