+
+:Codename: La Hulpe
+:2.2: 2010-08-06
+
+This release marks the start of another long-term-stable series. From
+here, we will only make bugfix releases on the 2.2 series (2.2.1, etc),
+while 2.3 will become our new development series. The 2.0 and 2.1 series
+will also continue to get bugfixes. (Currently 2.0 is planned to be
+supported for another 6 months.)
+
+This is primarily a bugfix and polish release over the 2.1 series, with
+a large number of bugs fixed (>120), and some performance improvements.
+
+There are some compatibility changes in this release.  For users of bzrlib
+as a library, we now request that they call ``bzrlib.initialize`` and use
+the returned context manager appropriately. For commandline users we no
+longer guess user identity for ``bzr commit``, users must specify their
+identity using ``bzr whoami`` (you don't need to specify your identity for
+readonly operations).
+
+Users are encouraged to upgrade from the other stable series.
