+FetchContent_find_package_integration
+-------------------------------------
+
+* Integration has been added between the :module:`FetchContent` module and the
+ :command:`find_package` command, enabling the following new capabilities:
+
+ * :command:`FetchContent_MakeAvailable` can now try to satisfy a dependency
+ by calling :command:`find_package` first. A new
+ :variable:`FETCHCONTENT_TRY_FIND_PACKAGE_MODE` variable controls whether
+ this is done by default for all dependencies, is opt-in per dependency,
+ or is disabled entirely.
+
+ * :command:`find_package` can be re-routed to call
+ :command:`FetchContent_MakeAvailable` instead. A new read-only
+ :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_REDIRECTS_DIR` variable points to a
+ directory where config package files can be located to facilitate these
+ re-routed calls.
