-Release 0.35.0
+Release 0.36.0
 ==============
 
-This release requires FFmpeg 4.0 or newer.
+This release requires FFmpeg 4.4 or newer.
 
-For packagers: Note that mpv's build system is only supported on Python 3.
-If you use the `bootstrap.py` script it will take care of this, otherwise you
-need to explicitly invoke the build system using `python3 waf`.
-
-This release adds the Meson build system as an alternative to waf.
-It is supposed to be feature-complete but please report any issues you encounter.
+This is the last release to contain the waf build system.
+Meson is the primary and actively supported build system while waf is considered deprecated.
