 ## [Unreleased]
 
-- Remove `mysql2` as a direct dependency, test Rails 7.0 with `mysql2` and `activerecord-trilogy-adapter`
+- `Trilogy` is now a supported MySQL database adapter. ActiveRecordHostPool no longer requires `mysql2`, nor does it explicitly require `activerecord-trilogy-adapter`. Applications using ARHP will now need to explicitly require one of these adapters in its gemfile. When using `activerecord-trilogy-adapter` also ensure that the `trilogy` gem is locked to `v2.5.0+`.
+- Remove `mysql2` as a direct dependency, test Rails 7.0 with `mysql2` and `activerecord-trilogy-adapter`.

+For now, the only backend known to work is MySQL, with the mysql2 or activerecord-trilogy-adapter gem. When using the activerecord-trilogy-adapter ensure that the transitive dependency Trilogy is v2.5.0+.
 Postgres, from an informal reading of the docs, will never support the concept of one server connection sharing multiple dbs.
