```
+### Rubygems provider sources behavior changed.
+
+The default behavior of the `gem_package` and `chef_gem` resources is now to inherit whatever settings are in the external environment
+that chef is running in. Chef no longer forces `https://rubygems.org`. The `Chef::Config[:rubygems_uri]` default has been changed to
+nil. It can now be set to either a string URI or to an array of string URIs. The behavior of setting the source on an individual
+resource now overrides the source setting completely and does not inherit the global setting.
+
+Users that previously relied on the source setting always being additive to "https://rubygmes.org" will find that they need to use
+the array form and explicitly add "https://rubygems.org" to their resources. Users can now more easily remove "https://rubygems.org"
+either globally or on a resource case-by-case basis.
+
+The behavior of the `clear_sources` property is now to only add `--clear-sources` and has no side effects on the source options.

### `knife cookbook site vendor` has been removed
