Changes in version 0.1.1                        

  - alepe_staff() gains status = "lent" (API term "efetivo-cedido"): the
    Assembly's own permanent staff lent to other bodies. The API
    publishes them with vinculo "Efetivo", so this server-side filter is
    the only way to single them out. alepe_positions() does not accept
    it, because /cargos ignores the value and returns every status.
  - An invalid status in alepe_staff() / alepe_positions() (and their
    aliases) is now an error, as documented. It used to be evaluated
    inside the fetch layer's error handler and surfaced as a warning
    that the API could not be reached, followed by an empty tibble.
  - Author metadata: the maintainer's name is spelled André Leite;
    Marcos Wasiliew's e-mail address is updated; ORCIDs added for Marcos
    Wasiliew and Júlia Nascimento Barreto.

                 Changes in version 0.1.0 (2026-08-20)                  

  - Initial release.

  - Tidy wrappers for all documented v1 endpoints of the ALEPE open data
    API: representatives, staff, positions, departments, remuneration,
    contracts, procurements, and legislative propositions (bills,
    indications, requests).

  - Local response cache, exponential-backoff retries, graceful failures
    compliant with the CRAN policy on internet resources.

  - Every endpoint function has a Portuguese alias named after the API
    endpoint it wraps (alepe_servidores(), alepe_contratos(),
    alepe_projetos(), ...); see ?alepe_aliases.
