+# Flask-PyMongo 2.0 Coming Soon
+
+Keeping up with PyMongo and MongoDB developments has been a continual
+struggle for me as maintainer of Flask-PyMongo, as attested to by the long
+list of bugs filed. I have let down those who use this project, and I
+apologize for that.
+
+In order to make the maintenance load acceptable, I have decided to release
+version 2.0 which will remove all of the "split out" configuration
+functionality. In 2.0, Flask-PyMongo will only read a MongoDB connection URI
+from Flask config. For cases where some configuration cannot be passed via
+URI, it will also accept keyword arguments, which will be passed directly to
+PyMongo.
+
+I anticipate that this will require changes from many users of
+Flask-PyMongo, and I apologize for the disruption. I believe that this
+direction will enable me to keep up with compatibility requests, reduce the
+number of custom forked versions, and provide a more compact and stable
+platform for future development.
+
+If you have not yet done so, please pin your version of Flask-PyMongo to the
+current version (e.g. `flask-pymongo<2.0` in a `requirements.txt` file).
+
+Please use https://github.com/dcrosta/flask-pymongo/issues/110 if you have
+any questions or concerns with this decision.
