* Misc + Removed unused requirements + Update gtts-token to fix google tts + Add repeat option to audioservice + skill tester now supports a test_setup() step for initial setup.
* See more changes at https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-core/releases/tag/release/v18.8.2- Update to 18.8.1:
* Mimic 2 speech improvement . The American Voice Beta voice model for mimic 2 has been improved quite a bit, to take advantage of this some of the sentence chunking code has been reworked. This will result in less unnatural pauses in the speech.
* Unify the commandline experience . Many of the command line tools used in the Mark-1 and Picroft was merged into the mycroft-core repo and can be found under .../mycroft-core/bin/
* Local precise model . A user specified precise wakeword model can now be specified in the configuration. This allows easier customization.

* Tue May 01 2018 alarrosaAATTsuse.com- Update to 18.2.5b:
* This release switches to the 18.02 branch of the mycroft-skills repository. Along with this change the skill version has been locked to the version that was submitted to the mycroft-skills repository.- Update to 18.2.4b:
* Shutdown improvements . The handling of signals has been improved allowing the software stack to be shutdown more gracefully.
* Fix install script for renamed module . Fixes failure to launch mycroft when mycroft-core was cloned to a non-standard location.
* Add enable/disable intent using the messagebus . Skill intents can now be enabled/disabled over the messagebus.
* Add support for ETag caching . To reduce server load and data traffic the all api requests supports Etag caching, which means no data is sent unless the information on the server has changed since last query.
* Initial Spanish translation
* Misc - Fix cancel_all_repeating_events() - Fix error code 20 when doing msm default - Skill settings are now updated once per minute again- Update to 18.2.3b:
* With this release the Mycroft Deep Speech STT backend is available and can be activated by editing your configs . DeepSpeech is now setup and running on the Mycroft servers. To make use of this you just need to switch the active STT module. Currently there is no web interface so you will need to use a text editor on the local mycroft.conf. See #1503 for a step by step guide to do this.
* Increase safety when using repeating events . Add some logic to repeating events to disallow multiple repeating events with the same name.
* MSM updates . A big refactor of the code to allow parallell installation of skills along with a bugfix to prevent a possible hang at startup.
* Audio service updates . A number of updates in the audio service : - Fix audio service previous - Re-add \"active\" flag for audio backends - Add shutdown method to audio backends for cleanup when the process exites. - Add audio backend mplayer - Reduce logging verbosity
* Miscellaneous - Fix some confusing log messages. - Removed unused function in skill settings - Add missing pt-pt dialog files - Fix possible crash when using wait_for_response - Make the Message.utterance_remainder() method more robust. - Wait for messagebus before emitting a message - Re-enable the Spotify-skill- Update to 18.2.2b:
* This is a special release to fix a bug in the Spotify skill.- Update to 18.2.1b:
* Slowing the skill setting poll to once every 5 min . This was an ultimately unsuccessful attempt at reduce load of the backend.
* Refactor event handler argument calling. The logic handling has been reduced
* Bugfixes and cleanups - Fix accessing non-existent attribute in except blocks - Reduce verbosity when skill settings fetch fails. - Fix local service crash when servers are down- Update patches:
* 0004-Fix-hashes-in-settings-for-python3.patch
* 0005-Fix-test-cases-under-python-3.patch
* 0006-Remove-backwards-compatibility-with-python-2.7.patch

* Mon Mar 05 2018 alarrosaAATTsuse.com- Added a python3 fix for mycroft.skills.audioservice
* fix-installation-paths.patch- Set the default enclosure to \"kde\" in the user configuration template file and add some more data, so users can just modify the file easily for their systems.- Added patches for more skills:
* skills-skill-desktop-launcher.patch
* skills-fallback-duckduckgo.patch
* skills-skill-autogui.patch- Added more dependencies for the default skills, since changing the enclosure to kde added a few more default skills.- Moved vlc to Recommended instead of Required, since it\'s only used by some skills
* Sun Mar 04 2018 alarrosaAATTsuse.com- Add msm-add-local-patch-support.patch to be able to add patches to skills from within msm, just after installing them. The applied patches are then stored in ~/.mycroft/applied-skill-patches, so when msm is used to update a skill, the patch is removed, the skill is updated and then it\'s applied (if necessary).- Added skill patches for 4 skills. Note that these patches are not applied when packaging, but are distributed in the package as patches to be applied at runtime:
* skills-fallback-wolfram-alpha.patch
* skills-skill-reminder.patch
* skills-mycroft-music-skill.patch
* skills-mycroft-youtube.patch
* Sat Mar 03 2018 alarrosaAATTsuse.com- Update to 18.2.0beta- Update to 18.02 RC2
* Audio services startup . An error when loading the chromecast backend prevented all backends from loading. The backend loading code has been updated to be more tolerant against this kind of errors.
* Do not sync NTP on desktop. Remove NTP sync on desktop installations where this is not needed, This increases boot speed with 15 seconds.
* Handle repeating events better after hibernate. The repeating event would start triggering at 2 times per second if it falls behind the current time until it catches up. This occurs for example after hibernation. This is resolved by never allowing the next sceduled time to be in the future.
* Simplify version checking
* Remove redundant except (SystemExit, KeyboardInterrupt) clauses
* Fix platform comment in config- Update to 18.02 RC1
* Adapt intent Bugfixes
* Fix Enable/Disable intents
* Fix Dynamic registration of vocabulary

* Reduce CLI log clutter - Most of the info messages from the skill settings were demoted to debug and the debug messages are filtered by default making it easier to check for errors and info logs from skills in development.
* Make keywords per skill to fix overlapping keyword names - To hinder skills from forcing new vocabulary on other skills when naming collisions occur the names are now mangled somewhat before sent to the intent service.
* Event scheduler improvements - schedule_repeating_event() start time defaults to current time + period - Non repeating events are automatically cancelled and event handlers are teared down
* Miscellaneous - Upgrade pip version to 9.0.1 - Fix bug in nice_time() for times before noon - Audio service: Add message on track start

* Functions for displaying and speaking time and numbers added.
