 4.2.0
 -----
 
+Deprecations
+============
+
+Several deprecated items have been removed
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* The methods ``PIL.ImageWin.Dib.fromstring``,
+  ``PIL.ImageWin.Dib.tostring`` and
+  ``PIL.TiffImagePlugin.ImageFileDirectory_v2.as_dict`` have
+  been removed.
+
+* Before Pillow 4.2.0, attempting to save an RGBA image as JPEG would
+  discard the alpha channel. From Pillow 3.4.0, a deprecation warning
+  was shown. From Pillow 4.2.0, the deprecation warning is removed and
+  an :py:exc:`IOError` is raised.
+
+Removed Core Image Function
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The unused function ``Image.core.new_array`` was removed. This is an
+internal function that should not have been used by user code, but it
+was accessible from the python layer.
