+Changes between 6.2.0 and 6.3.0
+===============================
+Module changes:
+* Many modules ported to use requests package for stability and security.
+* Weather location lookup is fixed.
+* Confusing and unnecessary commands like .op were removed.
+* Splitting of options in .choice is now more intuitive.
+* Some edge cases in reddit post information were fixed.
+
+Core changes:
+* A check is added to warn about an obscure environment issue that can cause strange errors.
+* Regex characters in the bot's nick no longer cause issues when a rule has the nickname added.
+* Rate limiting is tweaked slightly, which should reduce the severity of the .commands flood bug until a proper solution is found.
+
+API changes:
+* The current topic of a channel is now available as the Channel object's topic attribute.
+* sopel.web has been reworked as a wrapper around requests; it remains deprecated.
