+  1. With the NetBox 4.5 release Python 3.10 and 3.11 are officially no
+     longer supported.  The whole code can still be compiled without any
+     problems using Python 3.11, which is the current default version in
+     the ports tree.
+
+     Therefore, the minimum version for Python doesn't need to be raised
+     for the time being, but this may change at any time as soon as
+     backward-incompatible changes to the code lands into upstream for the
+     next release.
+
+     Thus, no further action is required at this time. However, it's still
+     recommended to switch to Python 3.12 or newer in the near future.
+
+  2. Please also check the pkg-message and the changelogs for further info.
