-##################################################
-
-Paperclip is now compatible with aws-sdk-s3.
-
-If you are using S3 storage, aws-sdk-s3 requires you to make a few small
-changes:
-
-* You must set the `s3_region`
-* If you are explicitly setting permissions anywhere, such as in an initializer,
-  note that the format of the permissions changed from using an underscore to
-  using a hyphen. For example, `:public_read` needs to be changed to
-  `public-read`.
-
-For a walkthrough of upgrading from 4 to *5* (not 6) and aws-sdk >= 2.0 you can watch
