+
+What's new in version 0.9
+=========================
+
+Looser type-checking for the backported ``str`` object?
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+This is to work around some bugs / sloppiness in the Python 2 standard library.
+
+Overridden ``isinstance`` builtin deprecated?
+---------------------------------------------
+
+``isinstance`` checks with the backported types now work correctly using
+``__subclasshook__``?
+
+
+``futurize``: minimal imports by default
+----------------------------------------
+
+By default, the ``futurize`` script now only adds the minimal set of
+imports deemed necessary.
+
+There is now an ``--all-imports`` option to the ``futurize`` script which
+gives the previous behaviour, which is to add all ``__future__`` imports
+and ``from future.builtins import *`` imports to every module. (This even
+applies to an empty ``__init__.py`` file.
+
+
+suspend_hooks() context manager added to ``future.standard_library``
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Pychecker (as of v0.6.1)'s ``checker.py`` attempts to import the ``builtins``
+module as a way of determining whether Python 3 is running. Since this
+succeeds when ``from future import standard_library`` is in effect, this
+check does not work and the wrong value for pychecker's internal ``PY2``
+flag is set.
+
+To work around this, ``future`` now provides the following context manager::
+
+    from future import standard_library
+    ...
+    with standard_library.suspend_hooks():
+        from pychecker.checker import Checker
