Changelog
=========
+* :bug:`667` The RC4/arcfour family of ciphers has been broken since version
+ 2.0; but since the algorithm is now known to be completely insecure, we are
+ opting to remove support outright instead of fixing it. Thanks to Alex Gaynor
+ for catch & patch.
* :support:`- backported` A big formatting pass to clean up an enormous number
of invalid Sphinx reference links, discovered by switching to a modern,
rigorous nitpicking doc-building mode.
