 Highlights
 ~~~~~~~~~~
 
-None
+Zipline now has broad support for futures, in addition to equities. It's also being tested and packaged for Python 3.5.
+
+We also saw breaking changes occur from Yahoo changing their API endpoint, thus preventing users from downloading benchmark data needed for backtests. Since that change, we have swapped out Yahoo-related benchmarking code with references to Google Finance and have removed all deprecated Yahoo code, including the usage of custom Yahoo bundles.
