 This section lists previously described changes and other bugfixes that may
 require changes to your code:
 
+* The :mod:`nntplib` module was reworked extensively, meaning that its APIs
+  are often incompatible with the 3.1 APIs.
+
 * :class:`bytearray` objects cannot be used anymore as filenames: convert them
   to :class:`bytes`.
