+=head1 Core Enhancements
-=item *
+XXX New core language features go here. Summarize user-visible core language
+enhancements. Particularly prominent performance optimisations could go
+here, but most should go in the L</Performance Enhancements> section.
-L<B> has been upgraded from version 1.81 to 1.82.

+=head1 Security
-L<ExtUtils::CBuilder> has been upgraded from version 0.280234 to 0.280235.
+XXX Any security-related notices go here. In particular, any security
+vulnerabilities closed should be noted here rather than in the
+L</Selected Bug Fixes> section.

-L<ExtUtils::MakeMaker> has been upgraded from version 7.48 to 7.56.
+=head1 Incompatible Changes
-=item *
+XXX For a release on a stable branch, this section aspires to be:
-L<File::Fetch> has been upgraded from version 0.56 to 1.00.
+ There are no changes intentionally incompatible with 5.XXX.XXX
+ If any exist, they are bugs, and we request that you submit a
+ report. See L</Reporting Bugs> below.
-=item *
+[ List each incompatible change as a =head2 entry ]
-L<File::Path> has been upgraded from version 2.17 to 2.18.
+=head1 Deprecations
-=item *
+XXX Any deprecated features, syntax, modules etc. should be listed here.
-L<File::Spec> has been upgraded from version 3.78 to 3.79.
+=head2 Module removals
-=item *
+XXX Remove this section if not applicable.
-L<IPC::SysV> has been upgraded from version 2.08 to 2.09.
+The following modules will be removed from the core distribution in a
+future release, and will at that time need to be installed from CPAN.
+Distributions on CPAN which require these modules will need to list them as
+prerequisites.
-=item *
+The core versions of these modules will now issue C<"deprecated">-category
+warnings to alert you to this fact. To silence these deprecation warnings,
+install the modules in question from CPAN.
-L<Module::CoreList> has been upgraded from version 5.20201020 to 5.20201120.
+Note that these are (with rare exceptions) fine modules that you are encouraged
+to continue to use. Their disinclusion from core primarily hinges on their
+necessity to bootstrapping a fully functional, CPAN-capable Perl installation,
+not usually on concerns over their design.

-L<Net::Ping> has been upgraded from version 2.73_01 to 2.74.

+=head1 Modules and Pragmata
+
+XXX All changes to installed files in F<cpan/>, F<dist/>, F<ext/> and F<lib/>
+go here. If Module::CoreList is updated, generate an initial draft of the
+following sections using F<Porting/corelist-perldelta.pl>. A paragraph summary
+for important changes should then be added by hand. In an ideal world,
+dual-life modules would have a F<Changes> file that could be cribbed.
+
+The list of new and updated modules is modified automatically as part of
+preparing a Perl release, so the only reason to manually add entries here is if
+you're summarising the important changes in the module update. (Also, if the
+manually-added details don't match the automatically-generated ones, the
+release manager will have to investigate the situation carefully.)
