 Notable changes
 ===============
 
-Overwinter network upgrade
---------------------------
-
-The code preparations for the Overwinter network upgrade, as described in [ZIP
-200](https://github.com/zcash/zips/blob/master/zip-0200.rst), [ZIP
-201](https://github.com/zcash/zips/blob/master/zip-0201.rst), [ZIP
-202](https://github.com/zcash/zips/blob/master/zip-0202.rst), [ZIP
-203](https://github.com/zcash/zips/blob/master/zip-0203.rst), and [ZIP
-143](https://github.com/zcash/zips/blob/master/zip-0143.rst) are
-finished and included in this release. Overwinter will activate on testnet at
-height 207500, and can also be activated at a specific height in regtest mode
-by setting the config option `-nuparams=5ba81b19:HEIGHT`.
-
-However, because the Overwinter activation height is not yet specified for
-mainnet, version 1.0.15 will behave similarly as other pre-Overwinter releases
-even after a future activation of Overwinter on the network. Upgrading from
-1.0.15 will be required in order to follow the Overwinter network upgrade on
-mainnet.
-
-Overwinter transaction format
------------------------------
-
-Once Overwinter has activated, transactions must use the new v3 format
-(including coinbase transactions). All RPC methods that create new transactions
-(such as `createrawtransaction` and `getblocktemplate`) will create v3
-transactions once the Overwinter activation height has been reached.
-
-Overwinter transaction expiry
------------------------------
-
-Overwinter transactions created by `zcashd` will also have a default expiry
-height set (the block height after which the transaction becomes invalid) of 20
-blocks after the height of the next block. This can be configured with the
-config option `-txexpirydelta`.
-
-UTXO and note merging
----------------------
-
-In order to simplify the process of combining many small UTXOs and notes into a
-few larger ones, a new RPC method `z_mergetoaddress` has been added. It merges
-funds from t-addresses, z-addresses, or both, and sends them to a single
-t-address or z-address.
-
-Unlike most other RPC methods, `z_mergetoaddress` operates over a particular
-quantity of UTXOs and notes, instead of a particular amount of ZEC. By default,
-it will merge 50 UTXOs and 10 notes at a time; these limits can be adjusted with
-the parameters `transparent_limit` and `shielded_limit`.
-
-`z_mergetoaddress` also returns the number of UTXOs and notes remaining in the
-given addresses, which can be used to automate the merging process (for example,
-merging until the number of UTXOs falls below some value).
-
-UTXO memory accounting
-----------------------
-
-The default `-dbcache` has been changed in this release to 450MiB. Users can set
-`-dbcache` to a higher value (e.g. to keep the UTXO set more fully cached in
-memory). Users on low-memory systems (such as systems with 1GB or less) should
-consider specifying a lower value for this parameter.
-
-Additional information relating to running on low-memory systems can be found
-here: [reducing-memory-usage.md](https://github.com/zcash/zcash/blob/master/doc/reducing-memory-usage.md).
