-'''If starting a new project that needs access to BMO data via a webservice API, please talk to the [[BMO|BMO Team]] about using the [[BMO/REST|native API]] instead. The below API is a proxy that was originally created to address some of the webservice issues that Bugzilla had in the past and may no longer be needed for your project due to many recent improvements. Thanks!'''</div><br>
+'''This REST API, generally referred to as "bzAPI", is DEPRECATED. Please use the  [[BMO/REST|native REST API]] instead. bzAPI is a proxy that was originally created to address some of the WebService issues that Bugzilla had in the past, but it suffers from various problems that were fixed by making a native API. Please direct any questions to the [[BMO]] team.'''
+'''Note that we are working on a compatibility layer to help existing apps transition off of the bzAPI server, which will be decommissioned at some point.  This is tracked in {{bug|880669}} and [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.tools.bmo/Ord-AG87irA discussed on the tools.bmo list].'''</div><br>
