+- Update to version 0.17.0: 
+  * Added a new guess_packager() function that uses similar
+    heuristics as rpmdev-packager, meaning that the 
+    Specfile.add_changelog_entry() method no longer requires
+    rpmdev-packager to guess the changelog entry author. (#220)
+  * The Specfile.add_changelog_entry() method now uses dates based
+    on UTC instead of the local timezone. (#223)
