+## Highlights
 
-
+* Ignoring the directory where ESLint runs is no longer possible. Previously, a global `ignores` pattern like `"/"` would ignore the entire base directory.
+* The feature flags specification has been updated to forbid the usage of [inactive flags](/docs/latest/flags#inactive-flags).
