     Configuration:
     -------------
+    - CMake no longer builds the C++ library by default
+
+      HDF5_BUILD_CPP_LIB now defaults to OFF, which is in line with the
+      Autotools build defaults.
+
+      (DER - 2021/04/20)
+
+    - Removal of pre-VS2015 work-arounds
+
+      HDF5 now requires Visual Studio 2015 or greater, so old work-around
+      code and definitions have been removed, including:
+
+      * <inttypes.h>
+      * snprintf and vsnprintf
+      * llround, llroundf, lround, lroundf, round, roundf
+      * strtoll and strtoull
+      * va_copy
+      * struct timespec
+
+      (DER - 2021/03/22)
+
     - Add CMake variable HDF5_LIB_INFIX
 
       This infix is added to all library names after 'hdf5'.
