## v16.0.2
* BREAKING CHANGE: `Faker.Generate(n)` now calls `.ToList()` under the hood to escape LINQ deferred execution. Remembering to call `.ToList()` after `.Generate(n)` was a sticking point for new users writing test assertions on generated values. Please do not call `Faker.Generate(n).ToList()` as it would execute `.ToList()` twice. Simply, `Faker.Generate(n)` is enough.
* `f.Generate` and `f => f.Make` now return `IList<T>` to signify the breaking change above.
* Issue #92: Added `.GenerateLazy` to keep old behavior and returns `IEnumerable<T>`.
* Issue #93: Renamed a `PickRandom` overload to avoid the compiler from picking wrong `PickRandom` method.
* Added `f.PickRandomParam("cat","dog","fish")`.
* Removed `[Obsolete]` methods.

## v15.0.7
* Issue #88 - API aesthetics: Added `Name.FullName()` convenience method to generate a full name.

## v15.0.6
* PR #87: Added `.Rules()` method on `RuleSet`. Thanks @digitalcyote.

## v15.0.5
* Add parameter for including `Currency` fund codes (BOV, CLF, COU, MXV, UYI).
* Fixed minor issue in `Person.Email` having duplicate names.
* Helper method: `f.PickRandomWithout(ExcludeItem1, ExcludeItem2)` added.
* Helper method: `f.PickRandom("cat", "dog", "fish")` added.
* Performance: 40% reduction in Bogus' DLL size and memory footprint by removing whitespace in **Json** data files.
* Newtonsoft dependency update 10.0.3.  

## v15.0.3
* Added `f => f.Rant` to generate random user content like product reviews.
* Added `new Faker[T].Rules( (f, t) => ...)` as a shortcut for building rules quickly.
* Added `Address.FullAddress`
* Added `Internet.UrlWithPath` allowing to create URLs with random paths.
* Added `ru` (Russian locale) hacker adjective, ing-verb, noun, and verb.
* Added `Internet.Mac` address separator parameter.
* Feature parity with **faker.js** @ 6cdb93ef...
* Using new C# 7 features. =)
