ashley-1.7.0

• API change: removed UUIDs from entities, users should implement their own ID system when needed. This helps with networked games. Issue #182.
• Update: components are added/removed immediately, listeners are notified after the current system finishes updating. Commit 84de679.
• Bug fix: fixed entity listeners not being called if a component is added inside another listener. Commit b611dd9.

• API change: Component is now an interface. Issue #170.
• API addition: adds getEngine() to EntitySystem. Issue #167.
• API addition: EntityListeners now are notified by priority order. Commit f9152e6.
• API consistency: defines what happens when an Entity is added twice to an Engine and when we try do nested updates. We throw an exception in both cases. Issue #173.
• API consistency: adding an EntitySystem of the same class twice replaces the previous one, just like it has always happened when adding Components to an Entity. Commit 1dbfcb4.
• Update: uses Libgdx 1.6.4. Commit 0284510.

ashley-1.5.0

• API addition: adds getFamily() method to IntervalIteratingSystem and IteratingSystem. Commit 55241f5.

• Update: updated Libgdx version to 1.6.0. Commit 9b0eb90.
• Enhancement: allows IntervalSystem to update faster than the main loop. Issue #151.
• Enhancement: improved hashCode() and equals() implementation of Family. Commit b01cb15.
• Bug fix: fixed GWT build and made a Jenkins job to make sure we also test GWT integrity. Commit e2be43e.
• Bug fix: empty Family now matches empty entities. Commit db1286f.

ashley-1.4.0

• API deprecation: finally removed the Family.getFor() methods. In order to retrieve a family, you can do Family.all().one().exclude().get(). Commit d6222d9.
• API change: makes family Builder package protected. Issue #137.
• Bug fix: EntityOperation and ComponentOperation are now properly reset when put back into their pools. This doesn't affect the API at all and it's an implementation detail fix. Commit 356cf40.
• Bug fix: fixes PooledEngine always returning new components. Commit eff243f.
• Bug fix: fixes GWT build. Issue #135.
• Bug fix: avoids removing a PooledEntity twice. Commit cf7a020.
