 This resulted in two main versions.
 
 #### Version 1

 #### Version 2
 
-As of Version 2.0, Pi4J will **no longer include support for peripheral devices and
-add-on chipsets/boards** as part of the core project. A new plugin model has been introduced
-in version 2.0 that should help enable third-party development and support third-party
-add-ons which may be developed and maintained independently of the core Pi4J project.
