+.. warning::
+
+    Due to lack of ``pip`` and ``venv`` support, Passlib is no longer fully tested on Python
+    2.6 & 3.3.  There are no known issues, and bugfixes against these versions will still be
+    accepted for the Passlib 1.7.x series.
+    However, **Passlib 1.8 will drop support for Python 2.6 & 3.3; and Passlib 2.0 will drop
+    support for Python 2.x entirely.**
+
+* Support for Python 2.6 & 3.3 is deprecated; and will be dropped in Passlib 1.8.

+  :class:`bcrypt`: ``py-bcrypt`` and ``bcryptor`` backends are deprecated, and support
+  will be removed in Passlib 1.8.  Please switch to the ``bcrypt`` backend.
