-## Required KPL Update – v0.15.0
+## Required KPL Update – Changes in v0.15.0
 KPL 0.15.0 now incorporates StreamARN in the Kinesis requests, such as PutRecords and ListShards, to take advantage of Kinesis Data Streams (KDS) enhanced availability as the result of service cellularization. Version 0.15.0 adds STS as the new dependency; by using STS, customers can benefit from StreamARN without modifying any code.
 
-## Required KPL Update – v0.14.0
-KPL 0.14.0 now uses ListShards API, making it easier for your Kinesis Producer applications to scale. Kinesis Data Streams (KDS) enables you to scale your stream capacity without any changes to producers and consumers. After a scaling event, producer applications need to discover the new shard map. Version 0.14.0 replaces the DescribeStream with the ListShards API for shard discovery. ListShards API supports 100TPS per stream compared to DescribeStream that supports 10TPS per account. For an account with 10 streams using KPL v0.14.0 will provide you a 100X higher call rate for shard discovery, eliminating the need for a DescribeStream API limit increase for scaling. You can find more information on the [ListShards API ](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesis/latest/APIReference/API_ListShards.html) in the Kinesis Data Streams documentation.

 ## Required Upgrade
-Starting on February 9, 2018 Amazon Kinesis Data Streams will begin transitioning to certificates issued by [Amazon Trust Services (ATS)](https://www.amazontrust.com/).  To continue using the Kinesis Producer Library (KPL) you must upgrade the KPL to version [0.12.6](http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails|com.amazonaws|amazon-kinesis-producer|0.12.6|jar) or [later](http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cgav%7C1%7Cg%3A%22com.amazonaws%22%20AND%20a%3A%22amazon-kinesis-producer%22).
