 * (rules) {attr}`py_binary.srcs` and {attr}`py_test.srcs` is no longer mandatory when
   `main_module` is specified (for `--bootstrap_impl=script`)
-* (pypi) From now on the `Requires-Dist` from the wheel metadata is analysed in
-  the loading phase instead of repository rule phase giving better caching
-  performance when the target platforms are changed (e.g. target python
-  versions). This is preparatory work for stabilizing the cross-platform wheel
-  support. From now on the usage of `experimental_target_platforms` should be
-  avoided and the `requirements_by_platform` values should be instead used to
-  specify the target platforms for the given dependencies.
