=====
+Features
+--------
+ - Row keys are now bytes: keys stored by versions prior to 0.7.0 will be
+ returned as UTF-8 encoded bytes. OrderPreservingPartitioner and
+ CollatingOrderPreservingPartitioner continue to expect that keys contain
+ UTF-8 encoded strings, but RandomPartitioner no longer expects strings.
+ - A new ByteOrderedPartitioner supports bytes keys with arbitrary content,
+ and orders keys by their byte value.
