-### `RustcEncodable` and `RustcDecodable` removal
-
-`RustcEncodable` and `RustcDecodable` are two undocumented derive macros that have been removed from the prelude.
-These were deprecated before Rust 1.0, but remained within the standard library prelude.
-The 2024 Edition has removed these from the prelude since they are not expected to be used.
-
-If in the unlikely case there is a project still using these, it is recommended to switch to a serialization library, such as those found on [crates.io].

-### `RustcEncodable` and `RustcDecodable`
-
-It is strongly recommended that you migrate to a different serialization library if you are still using these.
-However, these derive macros are still available in the standard library, they are just required to be imported from the older prelude now:
-
-```rust,edition2021
-#[allow(soft_unstable)]
-use core::prelude::v1::{RustcDecodable, RustcEncodable};
-```
-
-There is no automatic migration for this change; you will need to make the update manually.
