  4.x Series
 ============
 
+IPython 4.2
+===========
+
+IPython 4.2 (April, 2016) includes various bugfixes and improvements over 4.1.
+
+- Fix ``ipython -i`` on errors, which was broken in 4.1.
+- The delay meant to highlight deprecated commands that have moved to jupyter has been removed.
+- Improve compatibility with future versions of traitlets and matplotlib.
+- Use stdlib :func:`python:shutil.get_terminal_size` to measure terminal width when displaying tracebacks
+  (provided by ``backports.shutil_get_terminal_size`` on Python 2).
+
+You can see the rest `on GitHub <https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues?q=milestone%3A4.2>`__.
