+== Robot Framework 2.0.4 ==
+
+The most important fix in Robot Framework 2.0.4 is a workaround for
installation problems with Pyhon 2.6.1 on Windows (issue 196),
+but there are also some other important fixes and enhancements. Unless
some critical bugs are found, this will be the final
+2.0.x release.
+
+Note that issue 181 and issue 198 are still left open at this point. This
means that these issues were partly done in 2.0.4 and
+they will be finalized in 2.1.
+
+=== Backwards incompatible changes ===
+
+This release should not have any backwards incompatible changes. Users of
TelnetLibrary should, however, note that the library nowadays
+negotiates echo on, and this may affect some special cases. Please comment
the issue 183 or send a note to [MailingLists mailing lists]
+if anything strange happens.
+
+This release also deprecates the old special syntax for repeating
keywords, but this only causes warnings until 2.2 release. See
+issue 193 for more information why the syntax has been removed and how to
easily convert it to use new `Repeat Keyword` (issue 192).
+It is very unlikely that this syntax is in wide use, and
[TestDataTidyingTool robotidy.py] will be updated to fix it before
+it is removed altogether (issue 197).
