+Migrating from API V1
+*********************
+
+Versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5 of the :ref:`to-api` have been 
deprecated since Apache Traffic Control version 4.0.0 and will be removed in 
Apache Traffic Control version 6.0.0. Any remaining users of 1.x endpoints of 
the Traffic Ops API are advised to upgrade to API version 3.0.
+
+Upgrading your Traffic Ops client
+=================================
+
+The easiest way to switch to a new API version is to use the latest version of 
a Traffic Ops client.
+
+Golang
+------
+
+If you are using the **github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/traffic_ops/client** 
package, use the |to-client-library-godoc|_ package instead.
+
+.. |to-client-library-godoc| replace:: 
**github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/traffic_ops/v3-client**
+.. _to-client-library-godoc: 
https://godoc.org/github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/traffic_ops/v3-client
+
+Python
+______
+
+Update to a newer version of the `Apache-TrafficControl 
<https://pypi.org/project/Apache-TrafficControl>`_ package.

Review comment:
       Those other projects are hosted on PyPi officially, by the ASF and 
published as part of the release process. That PyPi package is hosted only by 
me and is not updated unless and until I remember to do so. So it doesn't meet 
the [Release Publication 
Standards](https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#publication) which 
state:
   
   > **Projects MUST direct outsiders towards official releases rather than raw 
source repositories, nightly builds, snapshots, release candidates, or any 
other similar packages.**
   
   and
   
   > As a convenience to users that might not have the appropriate tools to 
build a compiled version of the source, binary/bytecode packages MAY be 
distributed alongside official Apache releases. In all such cases, the 
binary/bytecode package MUST have the same version number as the source release 
and MUST only add binary/bytecode files that are the result of compiling that 
version of the source code release and its dependencies.
   
   The PyPi package is
   
   - not part of an official release
   - using a different version number than the release to which it belongs
   - not even technically the result of compiling that version of the source 
code, since I had to edit the README to get it to render properly on PyPi.
   
   Also putting it on PyPi has been discussed somewhat on [the mailing 
list](https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/9d5b3dcb9193c44d6389a6aa580b042ec46c2896865eaadbdca8d1a2%40%3Cdev.trafficcontrol.apache.org%3E)
 where it seemed there wasn't widespread interest in an official hosting.
   
   I really hope I'm being pedantic and there'd be no legal issue putting that 
in, but officially the way you install the client is from the source repository.
