+ * For the sake of fewer build-time dependencies and less code in the
+ main repository, the python bindings are about to be removed in the
+ next release. A new repository has been created which accommodates
+ the code from now on, and we kindly ask distributions to create a
+ separate package for this. The removal will take place in v223.
