 ## Changed
-- `TensorFlow` is now an optional dependency. To use methods that require `TensorFlow` you can install `alibi` using `pip install alibi[tensorflow]` which will pull in a supported version. For full instructions for the recommended way of installing optional dependencies please refer to [Installation docs](https://docs.seldon.io/projects/alibi/en/stable/overview/getting_started.html#installation).

 - Updated `sklearn` version bounds to `scikit-learn>=0.22.0, <2.0.0`.
 - Updated `tensorflow` maximum allowed version to `2.9.x`.
 
 ## Development
-- This release introduces a way to manage the absence of optional dependencies. In short, the design is such that if an optional dependency is required for an algorithm but missing, at import time the corresponding public (or private in the case of the optional dependency being required for a subset of) algorithm class will be replaced by a `MissingDependency` object. For full details on developing `alibi` with optional dependencies see [Contributing: Optional Dependencies](https://github.com/SeldonIO/alibi/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#optional-dependencies).

 - The [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/SeldonIO/alibi/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) has been updated with further instructions for managing optional dependencies (see point above) and more conventions around docstrings.
 - We have split the `Explainer` base class into `Base` and `Explainer` to facilitate reusability and better class hierarchy semantics with introducing methods that are not explainers ([#649](https://github.com/SeldonIO/alibi/pull/649)).
 - `mypy` has been updated to `~=0.900` which requires additional development dependencies for type stubs, currently only `types-requests` has been necessary to add to `requirements/dev.txt`.
