 2. Status of this release

 3. Major changes in this Release
-This section describes the changes between Flume 0.9.x and this version.
-This new codebase of Flume (aka Flume-NG) is refactoring of the first
-generation Flume to solve certain known issues and limitations of the
-original design. It's not backward compatible with previous

+Apache Flume versions 1.0.0 and greater represent a major refactoring of the
+Flume codebase and are not backwards compatible with the 0.9.x series of Flume
+releases. However, the developers of Flume strive to maintain backwards
+compatibility within the 1.x codeline.
