 Notice inboxes
 --------------
 
-Before version 0.6.2, the page showing all notices from people the
-user is subscribed to ("so-and-so with friends") was calculated at run
-time. Starting with 0.6.2, we have a new data structure for holding a
-user's "notice inbox". (Note: distinct from the "message inbox", which
-is the "inbox" tab in the UI. The notice inbox appears under the
-"Personal" tab.)
-
-Notices are added to the inbox when they're created. This speeds up
-the query considerably, and also allows us the opportunity, in the
-future, to add different kind of notices to an inbox -- like @-replies
-or subscriptions to search terms or hashtags.
-
-Notice inboxes are enabled by default for new installations. If you
-are upgrading an existing site, this means that your users will see
-empty "Personal" pages. The following steps will help you fix the
-problem.
-
-0. $config['inboxes']['enabled'] can be set to one of three values. If
-   you set it to 'false', the site will work as before. Support for this
-   will probably be dropped in future versions.
-1. Setting the flag to 'transitional' means that you're in transition.
-   In this mode, the code will run the "new query" or the "old query"
-   based on whether the user's inbox has been updated.
-2. After setting the flag to "transitional", you can run the
-   fixup_inboxes.php script to create the inboxes. You may want to set
-   the memory limit high. You can re-run it without ill effect.
-3. When fixup_inboxes is finished, you can set the enabled flag to
-   'true'.
-
-NOTE: As of version 0.8.1 notice inboxes are automatically trimmed back
-      to ~1000 notices every once in a while.
-
-NOTE: we will drop support for non-inboxed sites in the 0.9.x version
-of StatusNet. It's time to switch now!
+Notice inboxes are now required. If you don't have inboxes enabled,
+StatusNet will no longer run.
