 ### Offline tables can prevent tablet balancing
 
-A table with many tablets was created, data ingested into it, and then taken
-offline. There were tablet migrations also queued for the table which could not
-happen because the table was offline at that point. The balancer doesn't run
-when there are outstanding migrations; therefore, the system became more and more
-out of balance. [ACCUMULO-2694][4] introduces a fix to ensure that offline tables
-do not block balancing and improves the server-side logging.
+Before 1.5.2, when a table with many tablets was created, ingested into, and
+taken offline, tablet balancing may have stoppped. This would happen if there
+were tablet migrations for the table, because the migrations couldn't occur.
+The balancer will not run when there are outstanding migrations; therefore, a
+system could become unbalanced. [ACCUMULO-2694][4] introduces a fix to ensure
+that offline tables do not block balancing and improves the server-side
+logging.
