 Upcoming Release
 ================
 
+* Removed rule ``copy_config``. Instead, a config file is created for each
+  network output of the ``solve_*`` rules, with the same content as ``n.meta``.
+
 * Upgrade to Snakemake v8.5+. This version is the new minimum version required.
   To upgrade an existing environment, run ``conda install -c bioconda
   snakemake-minimal">=8.5"`` and ``pip install snakemake-storage-plugin-http``
