+Version 5.0.0
+-------------
+
+:Date: May 12, 2020
+
+This release includes two large changes, one that is breaking and requires a major version upgrade:
+
+* We have removed our deprecated doc serving code that used ``core/views``, ``core/symlinks``, and ``builds/syncers`` (`#6535 <https://github.com/readthedocs/readthedocs.org/pull/6535>`__). All doc serving should now be done via ``proxito``. In production this has been the case for over a month, we have now removed the deprecated code from the codebase.
+* We did a large documentation refactor that should make things nicer to read and highlights more of our existing features. This is the first of a series of new documentation additions we have planned
