 ---------------------------
 
+- IPython and BPython support have been removed from pshell in the core.
+  To continue using them on Pyramid 1.6+ you must install the binding
+  packages explicitly. One way to do this is by adding ``pyramid_ipython``
+  (or ``pyramid_bpython``) to the ``install_requires`` section of your
+  package's ``setup.py`` file and afterwards re-running ``setup.py develop``::
+
+    setup(
+        #...
+        install_requires=[
+            'pyramid_ipython',         # new dependency

-- Cache busting for static assets has been added and is available via a new

-  ``cachebust``.  Core APIs are shipped for both cache busting via query
-  strings and path segments and may be extended to fit into custom asset

 - Add :func:`pyramid.request.apply_request_extensions` function which can be
   used in testing to apply any request extensions configured via
   ``config.add_request_method``. Previously it was only possible to test the
   extensions by going through Pyramid's router.  See

 Deprecations
 ------------
 
+- The ``pserve`` command's daemonization features have been deprecated as well
+  as ``--monitor-restart``. This includes the ``[start,stop,restart,status]``
+  subcommands as well as the ``--daemon``, ``--stop-daemon``, ``--pid-file``,
+  ``--status``, ``--user`` and ``--group`` flags.
+  See https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/pull/2120
+  and https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/pull/2189
+  and https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/pull/1641
+
+  Please use a real process manager in the future instead of relying on the
+  ``pserve`` to daemonize itself. Many options exist including your Operating
+  System's services such as Systemd or Upstart, as well as Python-based
+  solutions like Circus and Supervisor.
