-## Frenck working full time.
+Here it is! Home Assistant 0.103 is released, which is the last major release
+for this year. For the final stretch of this year, we've have focussed on
+cleaning things up. This release contains many things that were still
+in progress (e.g., due to Hacktoberfest), lots of bugfixes; mainly
+things that help to improve the stability and experience of Home Assistant.
+
+We wish you happy holidays! As always, we skip a release cycle at the end
+of the year, making this the final, major release of 2019. This gives all of
+us time to enjoy the holidays with our families as well.
+The first release of 2020, will be on 15 January.
+
+Furthermore, we'd like to take the opportunity to thank all of our contributors,
+no matter how small or big the contribution; code, documentation,
+issue reporting, beta testing, supporters in our
+[forum](https://community.home-assistant.io) and [chat](/join-chat).
+We salute and thank you and wish you the best for the new decade,
+as we are entering 2020! :love:
+
+Cheers!
+
+## Service's have been moved to their respective integration namespaces
+
+For 0.103, an extensive cleanup has been taken place around the names of the
+services. We realize this affects many users; therefore, we made sure all
+changes are nowhere in a single release.
+This change was driven by [@raman325], who did an excellent job of completing
+this in time for 0.103.
+
+We used to have services that were placed inside other domains,
+which wasn't always the case, and therefore inconsistent.
+So, for example, the service to add an item to Todoist was actually a service
+call under the `calendar` domain: `calendar.todoist_new_task`.
+
+This release, all services that were not placed correctly, are moved into their
+respective integration domain. So, for the above example of
+`calendar.todoist_new_task`, has been renamed to `todoist.new_task`.
+
+We hope this brings a more streamlined experience to the use of services,
+for now, and in the future. For a complete list of old vs. new service names,
+a table as been added to the release notes, [below](#updated-service-names).

**Mobile App** - Loading the Mobile App no longer causes the Cloud integration to be loaded. If you relied on this, add `cloud:` to your configuration.yaml. - ([@balloob] - [#29373]) ([mobile_app docs]) -- **Samsung TV** - The behaviour for next and previous track commands for Samsung TVs has changed. Before the change the Samsung TV component reacted to the two above commands sending the KEY_FF and KEY_REWIND commands. While watching TV programs those two commands do nothing. After the change the entity sends the KEY_CHUP and KEY_CHDOWN commands instead, thus allowing the user to change channel using the media player standard lovelace interface. The user doesn't need to change anything in the configuration. - ([@tulindo] - [#28213]) ([samsungtv docs]) -- **Wake on LAN** - The configuration key `mac_address:` was renamed to `mac:` to be in sync with with the service. ([@fabaff] - [#28830]) ([wake_on_lan docs]) -- **PulseAudio Loopback Switch** - The default port was incorrectly set to 4712, however the official documentation states that the default port is 4713.

This will cause a typical dual setpoint thermostat to be correctly represented as a single entity. - ([@oandrew] - [#27040]) ([zwave docs]) - **Transmission** - Added host field to `add_torrent` service in order to support multiple Transmission instances. ([@engrbm87] - [#28653]) ([transmission docs]) - **Opentherm Gateway** - Adds device support. This change breaks enabled `sensor` and `binary_sensor` entities, which are now disabled by default and can be re-enabled through the Devices panel. It also breaks `entity_id` of the climate entity in some configurations. The `entity_id` is now based on the `gateway_id` rather than the configured `name` to guarantee uniqueness. - ([@mvn23] - [#28722]) ([opentherm_gw docs]) - **Intent** - If you use the built-in intents for shopping list, cover or light, you need to add `intent:` to your `configuration.yaml`. - ([@balloob] - [#29280]) ([conversation docs]) ([cover docs]) ([intent docs]) ([light docs]) ([shopping_list docs]) -- **Emulated Hue** - As previous `entityid` were not Hue compliant, `emulated_hue_ids.json` will need to be cleared out and devices re-discovered and configured in Alexa / Google Home.
