<p>Two weeks has past so here is 0.15! We have been focussing a lot on quality. Making sure the system is more stable and reliable. I usually try to highlight one cool thing in the release notes but this release has 4 exciting announcements!</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://github.com/fabaff">@fabaff</a> has upgraded the codebase to follow the PEP257 documentation standard.</li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/PartOfTheThing">@partofthething</a> has migrated us to use the main Python Open Z-Wave library instead of our forked version.</li>
<li>To make our automations more powerful, <a href="https://github.com/persandstrom">@persandstrom</a> added the option to use templates to dynamically create service calls. This works for automation, Alexa, universal media player, template switch. <a href="/topics/service_calls/#use-templates-to-decide-which-service-to-call">Learn more.</a></li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/MartinHjelmare">@MartinHjelmare</a> has upgraded our scene support to now support all built-in services and components.</li>
</ul>
<p>Besides bug fixes, this release also brings:</p>

<ul>
<li>Scene: Converted to a platform based component (<a href="https://github.com/sander76">@sander76</a>)</li>
<li>Scene: <a href="/components/scene.hunterdouglas_powerview/">Hunter Douglas Powerview</a> now supported (<a href="https://github.com/sander76">@sander76</a>)</li>
<li>Lock: <a href="/components/lock.mqtt/">MQTT</a> platform added (<a href="https://github.com/fabaff">@fabaff</a>)</li>
<li>Device Tracker: <a href="/components/device_tracker.owntracks/">OwnTracks</a> will allow filtering inaccurate GPS locations (<a href="https://github.com/HydrelioxGitHub">@HydrelioxGitHub</a>)</li>
<li>Binary Sensor: Wemo Motion now supported (<a href="https://github.com/pavoni">@pavoni</a>, <a href="https://github.com/ryanlaux">@ryanlaux</a>)</li>
</ul>

<h3>Breaking Changes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Media Player: Attributes to call service play_media has been renamed to<br />
<code>media_content_type</code> and <code>media_content_id</code>, to match the corresponding media<br />
player state attributes. This change affects automations, scripts and scenes.</li>

<p>Alrighty, it’s time for Home Assistant 0.10. A lot amazing things have changed and sadly we also had to introduce a bunch of backwards incompatible changes. I would like to give a big shoutout to Philip Lundrigan (<a href="https://github.com/philipbl">@philipbl</a>) who put a lot in effort in helping the migration to move towards using templates for a wide variety of platforms.</p>

<p>Home Assistant has learned a new trick to get the latest information from the server: streaming updates. No longer will the frontend poll every 30 seconds for updates but instead it will keep a connection open and get the latest changes pushed as soon as they happen.</p>
<p>A new toggle has been added ot the sidebar to turn streaming updates on and off. This preference will be saved on a per-browser basis using local storage. The toggle will also indicate when there is an error setting up a stream after which it will fall back to use polling.</p>
