 ## Upgrade Information
 
+Differences to version 25
+
+- **Attention**:
+  All already deprecated legacy options (besides the newly deprecated *Key* and
+  *MaxUsers* settings, see below) were removed in ngIRCd 26, so make sure to
+  update your configuration before upgrading, if you haven't done so already
+  (you got a warning on daemon startup when using deprecated options): you can
+  check your configuration using `ngircd --configtest` -- which is a good idea
+  anyway ;-)
+
+- Setting modes for predefined channels in *[Channel]* sections has been
+  enhanced: now you can set *all* modes, like in IRC "MODE" commands, and have
+  this setting multiple times per *[Channel]* block. Modifying lists (ban list,
+  invite list, exception list) is supported, too.
+
+  Both the *Key* and *MaxUsers* settings are now deprecated and should be
+  replaced by `Modes = +l <limit>` and `Modes = +k <key>` respectively.
