 * The ethdev hotplug API is going to be moved to EAL with a notification
   mechanism added to crypto and ethdev libraries so that hotplug is now
   available to both of them. This API will be stripped of the device arguments

   do not need to care about the kind of devices that are being used, making it
   easier to add new buses later.
 
-* ABI changes are planned for struct rte_pci_id, i.e., add new field ``class``.
-  This new added ``class`` field can be used to probe pci device by class
-  related info. This change should impact size of struct rte_pci_id and struct
-  rte_pci_device. The release 16.04 does not contain these ABI changes, but
-  release 16.07 will.
-
 * The xstats API and rte_eth_xstats struct will be changed to allow retrieval
   of values without any string copies or parsing.
   No backwards compatibility is planned, as it would require code duplication

   functions added to facilitate the creation of mempools using an external
   handler. The 16.07 release will contain these changes.
 
-* The rte_mempool allocation will be changed in 16.07:
-  allocation of large mempool in several virtual memory chunks, new API
-  to populate a mempool, new API to free a mempool, allocation in
-  anonymous mapping, drop of specific dom0 code. These changes will
-  induce a modification of the rte_mempool structure, plus a
-  modification of the API of rte_mempool_obj_iter(), implying a breakage
-  of the ABI.
-
 * A librte_vhost public structures refactor is planned for DPDK 16.07
   that requires both ABI and API change.
   The proposed refactor would expose DPDK vhost dev to applications as
   a handle, like the way kernel exposes an fd to user for locating a
   specific file, and to keep all major structures internally, so that
   we are likely to be free from ABI violations in future.
+
+* The mbuf flags PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT are deprecated and
+  are respectively replaced by PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED and
+  PKT_RX_QINQ_STRIPPED, that are better described. The old flags and
+  their behavior will be kept in 16.07 and will be removed in 16.11.
