maybe you can add a hint on the reason which lead to freezing the version number?

xlrd has explicitly removed support for anything other than xls files.

When reading the xlsx files saved by mvs we get an error without the version downgrade because panda is using xlrd by default. This does not show within mvs, because you are not reading the xlsx files, but might for other users.
Another possibility would of course be to change the type to xls, but I guess that's a bigger task.

I meant hint in the changelog entry :) so that someone reading this in 4 month and wondering why we frooze the version gets an answer immediately. Don't worry, I'll add it in my next PR if I don't forget :)
