 This can happen in a workload or app graph. Of course in a service graph the `Display Service Nodes` option is simply ignored.

+In Kiali v2.0 the new PatternFly graph implementation became the default, and the Cytoscape implementation was deprecated. The new graph is a big change and has
+been heavily tested. However, if you encounter an issue the Cytoscape graph is still available by setting:

+The Cytoscape graph implementation will be removed after a number of stable releases, so make sure to open a Kiali github issue for any problems you encounter

 ## 2.0.0
-Sprint Release: TBD
+Sprint Release: Oct 21, 2024
 
-Fixes:
+The first major Kiali release in over 5 years!  There are two main reasons for the major version update:
 
-* [Kiali federation with multiple Kubernetes flavors not able to access none OpenShift workloads/applications when running on OCP](https://github.com/kiali/kiali/issues/7665)
-* [Mesh page - controlplanes not mapped to their dataplanes when using stable revision labels](https://github.com/kiali/kiali/issues/7598)
-* [Validations - Inconsistency between List and Details pages](https://github.com/kiali/kiali/issues/7685)
-* [K8s Gateways: Out of mesh error when not in 'istio-system'](https://github.com/kiali/kiali/issues/7720)
-* [bearer token auth with external Grafana](https://github.com/kiali/kiali/issues/7717)
-* [grafana and tracing versions should be obtained over in_cluster_url](https://github.com/kiali/kiali/issues/7758)
-* [Toggle menu of the workload minigraph does not load the action list](https://github.com/kiali/openshift-servicemesh-plugin/issues/375)
+1. There is a breaking change in Kiali's namespace management configuration. To limit the namespaces accessible to Kiali, or made visible to users, Kiali v2.0 users will configure Discovery Selectors.
+
+There is no longer support for the following deprecated configuration settings:
+
+  * spec.deployment.accessible_namespaces
+  * api.namespaces.exclude
+  * api.namespaces.include
+  * api.namespaces.label_selector_exclude
+  * api.namespaces.label_selector_include
 
+2. Kiali has a new traffic graph implementation.
+
+The Cytoscape implementation has been deprecated and is no longer the default. Kiali has moved to PatternFly Topology to align with the rest of the Kiali interface, which is already implemented using PatternFly components.  The old graph implementation will be removed as soon as the Kiali maintainers believe the new implementation has proven itself in the field. Until that time, it can still be accessed by setting:
+
+```yaml
+spec:
+  kiali_feature_flags:
+    ui_defaults:
+      graph:
+        impl: "cy"
+```
