 # `embedded-alloc`
 
 > A heap allocator for embedded systems.
 
-Note that using this as your global allocator requires Rust 1.68 or later.
-(With earlier versions, you need the unstable feature `#![feature(default_alloc_error_handler)]`)
-
 This project is developed and maintained by the [libs team][team].
 
 ## Example
 
-Starting with Rust 1.68, this crate can be used as a global allocator on stable Rust:
-
 ```rust
 #![no_std]
 #![no_main]
