@@ -3,12 +3,16 @@
 
 ### Under the hood
 - Added 3 more adapter methods that the new dbt-adapter-test suite can use for testing. ([#2492](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/issues/2492), [#2721](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/pull/2721))
+- It is now an error to attempt installing `dbt` with a Python version less than 3.6. (resolves [#2347](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/issues/2347))
 - Check for Postgres relation names longer than 63 and throw exception. ([#2197](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/issues/2197))
 
 
 ### Fixes
 - dbt now validates the require-dbt-version field before it validates the dbt_project.yml schema ([#2638](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/issues/2638), [#2726](https://github.com/fishtown-analytics/dbt/pull/2726))
