Most notably `mongodb` ~3.2.7 -> ~3.3.0 ([changelog](https://github.com/mongodb/node-mongodb-native/tree/v3.3.0)) — highlights:

https://github.com/agenda/agenda/pull/674)
2.0.1 / 2018-08-30
==================
* Fix a bug where `job.touch()` wasn't promise based, as it should've been ([#667](https://github.com/agenda/agenda/pull/667)
2.0.0 / 2018-07-19
==================
* Rewrite tests: replace `mocha` and `blanket` with `ava` and `nyc` ([#506](https://github.com/agenda/agenda/pull/506))

* Code cleanup ([#503](https://github.com/agenda/agenda/pull/503))
* Ensure tests pass for Node.js version 10 [#608](https://github.com/agenda/agenda/pull/608))

* Fixes some flaky tests
* Adds docs generator (`npm run docs` to generate `/docs`)
BREAKING
--------
* Rewrite Agenda API support promises! ([#557](https://github.com/agenda/agenda/pull/557))
No more callbacks! Instead of:
```js
function graceful() {
agenda.stop(function() {
process.exit(0);
});
}
```
You need to:
```js
async function graceful() {
await agenda.stop();
process.exit(0);
}
```
You don't anymore have to listen for `start` event. Instead you can do:
```js
await agenda.start();
agenda.every('10 minutes', 'example');
```
However, this will still work:
```js
agenda.on('ready', function () {
agenda.every('10 minutes', 'example');
agenda.start();
});
```
See the documentation for more!

BREAKING
--------
* Fix jobs not running in order of them being queued ([#464](https://github.com/agenda/agenda/pull/464))
* Changes in Cron string parsing, changed parsing library from [ncb000gt/node-cron](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cron) to [harrisiirak/cron-parser](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cron-parser) ([#475](https://github.com/agenda/agenda/pull/475))
Previously Agenda would treat months as 0-11 where as normally, cron months are parsed as 1-12.
```
* * * * * *
| | | | | |
| | | | | +-- Year (range: 1900-3000)
| | | | +---- Day of the Week (range: 1-7, 1 standing for Monday)
| | | +------ Month of the Year (range: 0-11) NOTE: Difference here
| | +-------- Day of the Month (range: 1-31)
| +---------- Hour (range: 0-23)
+------------ Minute (range: 0-59)
```
Starting in version `1.0.0`, cron will be parsed in the standard UNIX style:
```
* * * * * *
| | | | | |
| | | | | +-- Year (range: 1900-3000)
| | | | +---- Day of the Week (range: 1-7, 1 standing for Monday)
| | | +------ Month of the Year (range: 1-12) NOTE: Difference here
| | +-------- Day of the Month (range: 1-31)
