+API Changes for 3.6.1
+=====================
+
+Behaviour
+---------
+
+Default behaviour of ``hexbin`` with *C* provided requires at least 1 point
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The behaviour changed in 3.8.0 to be inclusive of *mincnt*. However, that resulted in
+errors or warnings with some reduction functions, so now the default is to require at
+least 1 point to call the reduction function. This effectively restores the default
+behaviour to match that of Matplotlib 3.7 and before.
+
+
+Deprecations
+------------
+
+Deprecations removed in ``contour``
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+``contour.allsegs``, ``contour.allkinds``, and ``contour.find_nearest_contour`` are no
+longer marked for deprecation.
+
+
+Development
+-----------
+
+Minimum version of setuptools bumped to 64
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To comply with requirements of ``setuptools_scm``, the minimum version of ``setuptools``
+has been increased from 42 to 64.
