	+ F1000 manuscript with package details accepted and available at <https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.20660.2>
		+ Citation updated within package
	+ Require study duration be specified when simulating observations
	+ Implemented functionality to allow random asynchronous timepoints samples along the study duration
	+ Additional functions to approximate observed longitudinal microbiome data
	+ Convert simulated data into common data objects in either the metagenomeSeq or phyloseq packages
	+ Existing function changes:
		+ gen_norm_microbiome (must specify t_interval for study duration and additional option to specify asynchronous time points using asynch_time=TRUE)
		+ mvrnorm_sim (must specify t_interval for study duration and additional option to specify asynchronous time points using asynch_time=TRUE)
	+ New functions:
		+ conversion_functions (convert simulated data to metagenomeSeq or phyloseq object)
		+ sim_obs_functions (host of functions that allow users to specify discrete sampling timepoints and approximate observed longitudinal patterns)
