   release and consult the CHANGES.txt file for complete a list of changes
   since last release.  This announcement highlights only the important

+  Please note the following important changes since release 2.2.0:
+
+    -- SUPPORT FOR PYTHON VERSIONS BEFORE 2.7 IS NOW DEPRECATED
+
+       ***IMPORTANT***: This release is the last version of SCons to support
+       Python versions older than 2.7.  This release will warn if you are
+       running on Python 2.6 or older; future releases will probably not
+       work at all, as we are moving toward supporting Python 3.
+       Use --warn=no-python-version to suppress the warning if needed.
+
+    -- A lot of python pre-2.4 compatibility code was removed
+       in this release.  2.4 is the official floor for SCons,
+       but this release will likely enforce it more rigidly.
+
+    -- Spawning subprocesses on Windows should now be more reliable with -jN
+
+    -- MSVC10 and MSVC11 support improved, and fixed MSVS11 solution generation.
+
+    -- Various TeX/LaTeX builder improvements
+
+    -- Support for versioned shared libs on Linux and Mac, via
+       SHLIBVERSION and InstallVersionedLib.
+
+    -- WiX builder updates
