+* The ``dylan`` tool has been renamed to `deft
+  <https://opendylan.org/package/deft/index.html>`_.  This was done primarily
+  because it avoids some awkwardness when having to distinguish between the
+  Dylan language and the ``dylan`` tool. The ``dylan`` binary continues to
+  exist for backward compatibility (for example in GitHub workflows) but it
+  will be removed in a future release.
