+
+Changes in version 0.16.0 (2016-10-27)
+======================================
+
+This release removes the ``configparser`` package as an alias for
+``ConfigParser`` on Py2 to improve compatibility with the backported
+`configparser package <https://pypi.org/project/configparser/>`. Previously
+``python-future`` and the PyPI ``configparser`` backport clashed, causing
+various compatibility issues. (Issues #118, #181)
+
+If your code previously relied on ``configparser`` being supplied by
+``python-future``, the recommended upgrade path is to run ``pip install
+configparser`` or add ``configparser`` to your ``requirements.txt`` file.
+
+Note that, if you are upgrading ``future`` with ``pip``, you may need to
+uninstall the old version of future or manually remove the
+``site-packages/future-0.15.2-py2.7.egg`` folder for this change to take
+effect on your system.
+
+This releases also fixes these bugs:
+
+- Fix ``newbytes`` constructor bug. (Issue #171)
+- Fix semantics of ``bool()`` with ``newobject``. (Issue #211)
+- Fix ``standard_library.install_aliases()`` on PyPy. (Issue #205)
+- Fix assertRaises for ``pow`` and ``compile``` on Python 3.5. (Issue #183)
+- Fix return argument of ``future.utils.ensure_new_type`` if conversion to
+  new type does not exist. (Issue #185)
+- Add missing ``cmp_to_key`` for Py2.6. (Issue #189)
+- Allow the ``old_div`` fixer to be disabled. (Issue #190)
+- Improve compatibility with Google App Engine. (Issue #231)
+- Add some missing imports to the ``tkinter`` and ``tkinter.filedialog``
+  package namespaces. (Issues #212 and #233)
+- More complete implementation of ``raise_from`` on PY3. (Issues #141,
+  #213 and #235, fix provided by Varriount)
+
+
+Changes in version 0.15.2 (2015-09-11)
+======================================
+
+This is a minor bug-fix release:
+
+- Fix ``socket.create_connection()`` backport on Py2.6 (issue #162)
+- Add more tests of ``urllib.request`` etc.
+- Fix ``newsuper()`` calls from the ``__init__`` method of PyQt subclassses
+  (issue #160, thanks to Christopher Arndt)
+
+Changes in version 0.15.1 (2015-09-09)
+======================================
+
+This is a minor bug-fix release:
+
+- Use 3-argument ``socket.create_connection()`` backport to restore Py2.6
+  compatibility in ``urllib.request.urlopen()`` (issue #162)
+- Remove breakpoint in ``future.backports.http.client`` triggered on certain
+  data (issue #164)
+- Move ``exec`` fixer to stage 1 of ``futurize`` because the forward-compatible ``exec(a, b)``
+  idiom is supported in Python 2.6 and 2.7. See
+  https://docs.python.org/2/reference/simple_stmts.html#exec.
+
+
+Changes in version 0.15.0 (2015-07-25)
+======================================
+
+This release fixes compatibility bugs with CherryPy's Py2/3 compat layer and
+the latest version of the ``urllib3`` package. It also adds some additional
+backports for Py2.6 and Py2.7 from Py3.4's standard library.
+
+New features:
+
+- ``install_aliases()`` now exposes full backports of the Py3 urllib submodules
+  (``parse``, ``request`` etc.) from ``future.backports.urllib`` as submodules
+  of ``urllib`` on Py2.  This implies, for example, that
+  ``urllib.parse.unquote`` now takes an optional encoding argument as it does
+  on Py3. This improves compatibility with CherryPy's Py2/3 compat layer (issue
+  #158).
+- ``tkinter.ttk`` support (issue #151)
+- Backport of ``collections.ChainMap`` (issue #150)
+- Backport of ``itertools.count`` for Py2.6 (issue #152)
+- Enable and document support for the ``surrogateescape`` error handler for ``newstr`` and ``newbytes`` objects on Py2.x (issue #116). This feature is currently in alpha.
+- Add constants to ``http.client`` such as ``HTTP_PORT`` and ``BAD_REQUEST`` (issue #137)
+- Backport of ``reprlib.recursive_repr`` to Py2
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+- Add ``HTTPMessage`` to ``http.client``, which is missing from ``httplib.__all__`` on Python <= 2.7.10. This restores compatibility with the latest ``urllib3`` package (issue #159, thanks to Waldemar Kornewald)
+- Expand newint.__divmod__ and newint.__rdivmod__ to fall back to <type 'long'>
+  implementations where appropriate (issue #146 - thanks to Matt Bogosian)
+- Fix newrange slicing for some slice/range combos (issue #132, thanks to Brad Walker)
+- Small doc fixes (thanks to Michael Joseph and Tim Tröndle)
+- Improve robustness of test suite against opening .pyc files as text on Py2
+- Update backports of ``Counter`` and ``OrderedDict`` to use the newer
+  implementations from Py3.4. This fixes ``.copy()`` preserving subclasses etc.
+- ``futurize`` no longer breaks working Py2 code by changing ``basestring`` to
+  ``str``. Instead it imports the ``basestring`` forward-port from
+  ``past.builtins`` (issues #127 and #156)
+- ``future.utils``: add ``string_types`` etc. and update docs (issue #126)
