 Abstract
 ========
@@ -16,6 +19,18 @@
 This PEP describes a new section and a new format for the ``setup.cfg`` file,
 that allows describing the Metadata of a package without using ``setup.py``.
 
+
+Rejection Notice
+================
+
+As distutils2 is no longer going to be incorporated into the standard
+library, this PEP was rejected by Nick Coghlan in late April, 2013.
+
+A replacement PEP based on PEP 426 (metadata 2.0) will be created that
+defines the minimum amount of information needed to generate an sdist
+archive given a source tarball or VCS checkout.
+
+
 Rationale
 =========
