+# phsmethods 0.2.0 (2020-04-17)
+
+- New functions added: `age_group()`([#23](https://github.com/Health-SocialCare-Scotland/phsmethods/issues/23), [@chrisdeans](https://github.com/chrisdeans)); `chi_check()`([#30](https://github.com/Health-SocialCare-Scotland/phsmethods/issues/30), [@graemegowans](https://github.com/graemegowans)); `chi_pad()`([#30](https://github.com/Health-SocialCare-Scotland/phsmethods/issues/30), [@graemegowans](https://github.com/graemegowans)); and `match_area()`([#13](https://github.com/Health-SocialCare-Scotland/phsmethods/issues/13), [@jvillacampa](https://github.com/jvillacampa)).
+
+- The first argument of `postcode()` is now `x`, as opposed to `string`. This is unlikely to break much, if any, existing code. `postcode()` is also now slightly faster.
+
+- `phsmethods` no longer imports `stringi`.
+
+- `phsmethods` now depends on a version of R >= 2.10.
+
+- [Jack Hannah](https://github.com/jackhannah95) is no longer a maintainer.

 # phsmethods 0.1.1 (2020-02-10)
 
 - `file_size()`, `fin_year()`, `qtr()`, `qtr_end()`, `qtr_next()` and `qtr_prev()` now use `inherits(x, "y")` instead of `class(x) == "y"` to check class. The reasoning is explained in this [blogpost by Martin Maechler](https://developer.r-project.org/Blog/public/2019/11/09/when-you-think-class.-think-again/index.html).
