+  From the upstream Changes file:
+
+  [THIS RELEASE MIGHT BREAK YOUR BUILD]
+
+  - Path::Class has been excised in favor of Path::Tiny, exposed as
+    Dist::Zilla::Path; it will still respond to ->subdir and ->file, but
+    only until Dist::Zilla v7 -- fix your plugins by then!
+
+  - The --verbose switch to dzil is now strictly on/off.  To set
+    verbosity on a per-plugin basis, use the -V switch.  Unfortunately,
+    per-plugin verbosity seems to have been broken for some time, anyway.
+
+  - The plugins [Prereq] and [AutoPrereq] and [BumpVersion] have been
+    removed.  These were long deprecated.  (Don't confuse Prereq, for
+    example, with the plural Prereqs, which is the correct plugin.)
+
+  - [PkgVersion] now supports a use_package argument which will put the
+    version in the package statement.  (Remember that this syntax was
+    introduced in perl v5.12.0.)
+
+  - Dist::Zilla now requires perl v5.14.0.  It will still happily build
+    dists that run on whatever version of perl you like.
+
+  - Using a Dist::Zilla::Path like a Path::Class object now issues a
+    deprecation warning ("this will be removed") once per call site.
