+- traits.build paper published in Sep 2024 in Ecological Informatics (DOI: [10.1016/j.ecoinf.2024.102773](https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoinf.2024.102773))
+- Added standard error and standard deviation as value types
+- Moved functions to austraits package and made austraits package a dependancy
+- Renamed some of the functions that are now moved to austraits package 
+    * `bind_databases` <-- `build_combine`
+    * `convert_df_to_list` <-- `util_df_to_list`
+    * `convert_list_to_df1` <-- `util_list_to_df1`
+    * `convert_list_to_df2` <-- `util_list_to_df2`
+- Renamed functions still *also* assigned their old name, with a deprecation warning indicating the new name  
+- `plot_trait_distribution_beeswarm`, `trait_pivot_longer` and `trait_pivot_wider` had been in both austraits and traits.build packages and have now been removed from traits.build
+- Import new austraits function `flatten_database` (had been suggested to be `database_create_combined_table`)
+- Refactoring of test functions used by `dataset_test`
+- Added tests using the `dataset_test` function, so it is checked explicitly by traits.build (run on Example datasets)
+- Minor bug fixes
+- Minor updates to ontology (now version 1.0)
+
 # traits.build 1.1.0
