 * Add support for constructing low-level IR in SSA form (default behavior).
 * Add support for SSA linear scan register allocation (default behavior).
 * Remove dummy parameter `includeAbstract` from `ResolvedJavaType#resolveMethod()`; The behavior is now the `includeAbstract==true` case. The `includeAbstract==false` variant is available via `resolveConcreteMethod()`.
+* HotSpot modifications have been renamed to JVMCI in preparation for [JEP 243](http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/243). As a result HotSpot options containing "Graal" have been changed to "JVMCI" (e.g., -XX:+BootstrapJVMCI).
+* All the APIs used to interface with the VM (`api.meta`, `api.code` etc.) have been moved to `jdk.internal.jvmci` packages (e.g., `jdk.internal.jvmci.meta`).
+* Fast JVMCI services do not need to implement an interface anymore, implementations simply need to be annotated with `jdk.internal.jvmci.service.ServiceProvider`.
 
 ### Truffle
 * Moved Truffle to it own [repository](http://lafo.ssw.uni-linz.ac.at/hg/truffle/)
