+Panels 2 ships with two new modules dealing with Views: panels_views and
+panels_views_legacy.
+
+In alpha versions of Panels 2 (and in Panels 1.x), all views were automatically
+available as content for panels - and there were a relatively complex set of
+settings in the "add content" form to add a view (arguments, type, read more
+link, all that stuff).
+
+The panels_views module changes this. Instead of all views automatically showing
+up, you go to admin/panels/views - and for each view you want to make available,
+you set up how it will be presented in the panels interface, plus defaults. This
+simplifies the panels interface itself (meaning that admins, editors or whoever
+can much more easily add views to their panels without all those complex options
+muddying the form) - but means more initial work before any view can be added.
+Don't forget to give yourself the additional permissions this module creates if
+you're not logged on as user/1!
+
+If you already have panels from a previous version set up with views and simply
+run update.php, ALL OF YOUR VIEWS WILL DISAPPEAR FROM YOUR PANELS - unless you
+enable the panels_views_legacy module. This module simply allows you to add
+views in exactly the same way as you could in alpha, and will leave all your
+current panels intact. So if your panels are all broken, and you've arrived
+here, just enable the module and take a deep breath.
+
+Also note that you can have both modules enabled at the same time - this will
+keep your old panel setups intact while you configure your views for the new
+method. As you configure your panels_views, unless you change the defaults when
+configuring them they will show up in the add content form with exactly the same
+name appearing as a duplicate. If you have a large number of views it may be
+worth changing the title or description in order to differentiate during this
+process.
