 === Major API Changes
 
 The libwireshark API has undergone some major changes:
 
-* The emem framework (including all ep_ and se_ memory allocation routines) has
-been completely removed in favour of wmem which is now fully mature.
-* The (long-since-broken) Python bindings support has been removed.  If
-you want to write dissectors in something other than C, use Lua.
-* Plugins can now create GUI menu items.
-* Heuristic dissectors can now be globally enabled/disabled so
-heur_dissector_add() has a few more parameters to make that possible
-* proto_tree_add_text has been removed.
+* The entire API is only accessible via COBOL-74 or VAX BLISS.
+* All integers are VAX-endian.
