+
+*   TensorFlow Windows Build:
+
+    *   Clang is now the default compiler to build TensorFlow CPU wheels on the
+        Windows Platform starting with this release. The currently supported
+        version is LLVM/clang 17. The official Wheels-published on PyPI will be
+        based on Clang; however, users retain the option to build wheels using
+        the MSVC compiler following the steps mentioned in
+        https://www.tensorflow.org/install/source_windows as has been the case
+        before
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+*   <DOCUMENT BREAKING CHANGES HERE>
+*   <THIS SECTION SHOULD CONTAIN API, ABI AND BEHAVIORAL BREAKING CHANGES>
+
+*   `tf.summary.trace_on` now takes a `profiler_outdir` argument. This must be
+    set if `profiler` arg is set to `True`.
+
+    *   `tf.summary.trace_export`'s `profiler_outdir` arg is now a no-op.
+        Enabling the profiler now requires setting `profiler_outdir` in
+        `trace_on`.
+
+*   `tf.estimator`
+
+    *   The tf.estimator API is removed.
+
+*   Keras 3.0 will be the default Keras version. You may need to update your
+    script to use Keras 3.0.
+
+*   Please refer to the new Keras documentation for Keras 3.0
+    (https://keras.io/keras_3).
+
+*   To continue using Keras 2.0, do the following.
+
+*   1.  Install tf-keras via pip install tf-keras~=2.16
+
+    1.  To switch tf.keras to use Keras 2 (tf-keras), set the environment
+        variable TF_USE_LEGACY_KERAS=1 directly or in your python program by
+        import os;os.environ["TF_USE_LEGACY_KERAS"]=1. Please note that this
+        will set it for all packages in your Python runtime program
+
+*   1.  Change import of keras from tensorflow as follows
+*   import tensorflow.keras as keras and import keras to import tf_keras as
+    keras
+* **Apple Silicon users:** If you previously installed TensorFlow using
+    `pip install tensorflow-macos`, please update your installation method. Use
+    `pip install tensorflow` from now on. Starting with TF 2.17, the
+    `tensorflow-macos` package will no longer receive updates.
+
+### Known Caveats
+
+* <CAVEATS REGARDING THE RELEASE (BUT NOT BREAKING CHANGES).>
+* <ADDING/BUMPING DEPENDENCIES SHOULD GO HERE>
+* <KNOWN LACK OF SUPPORT ON SOME PLATFORM, SHOULD GO HERE>
+
+*  Full aarch64 Linux and Arm64 macOS wheels are now published to the
+  `tensorflow` pypi repository and no longer redirect to a separate package.
+
+### Major Features and Improvements
+
+*   <INSERT MAJOR FEATURE HERE, USING MARKDOWN SYNTAX>
+*   <IF RELEASE CONTAINS MULTIPLE FEATURES FROM SAME AREA, GROUP THEM TOGETHER>
+
+*  Support for Python 3.12 has been added.
+*  [tensorflow-tpu](https://pypi.org/project/tensorflow-tpu/) package is now
+   available for easier TPU based installs.
+*  TensorFlow pip packages are now built with CUDA 12.3 and cuDNN 8.9.7

     * Added support for `stablehlo.minimum`.
+    * Added boolean parameter support for `tfl.gather_nd`.
+
+* `tf.train.CheckpointOptions` and `tf.saved_model.SaveOptions`
+    * These now take in a new argument called `experimental_sharding_callback`.
+      This is a callback function wrapper that will be executed to determine how
+      tensors will be split into shards when the saver writes the checkpoint
+      shards to disk. `tf.train.experimental.ShardByTaskPolicy` is the default
+      sharding behavior, but `tf.train.experimental.MaxShardSizePolicy` can be
+      used to shard the checkpoint with a maximum shard file size. Users with
+      advanced use cases can also write their own custom
+      `tf.train.experimental.ShardingCallback`s.
+
+* `tf.train.CheckpointOptions`
+    * Added `experimental_skip_slot_variables` (a boolean option) to skip
+    restoring of optimizer slot variables in a checkpoint.
+
+*   `tf.saved_model.SaveOptions`
+
+    * `SaveOptions` now takes a new argument called
+      `experimental_debug_stripper`. When enabled, this strips the debug nodes
+      from both the node defs and the function defs of the graph. Note that
+      this currently only strips the `Assert` nodes from the graph and
+      converts them into `NoOp`s instead.
+
+*   `tf.data`
+
+    * `tf.data` now has an `autotune_options.initial_parallelism` option to
+      control the initial parallelism setting used by autotune before the data
+      pipeline has started running. The default is 16. A lower value reduces
+      initial memory usage, while a higher value improves startup time.

+# Release 2.15.0.post1
+
+## TensorFlow
+
+### Bug Fixes and Other Changes
+
+*   Hot-fix was needed for an issue affecting the TensorFlow installation
+    process.
+    *   TensorFlow 2.15.0 Python package was requesting `tensorrt`-related
+        packages that cannot be found unless the user installs them beforehand
+        or provides additional installation flags.
+    *   This dependency affected anyone installing TensorFlow 2.15 alongside
+        NVIDIA CUDA dependencies via `pip install tensorflow[and-cuda]`.
+    *   Depending on the installation method, TensorFlow 2.14 would be installed
+        instead of 2.15, or users could receive an installation error due to
+        those missing dependencies.
+*   TensorFlow 2.15.0.post1 is being released for Linux x86_64 to resolve this
+    issue as quickly as possible.
+    *   This version removes the `tensorrt` Python package dependencies from the
+        tensorflow[and-cuda] installation method to ensure `pip install
+        tensorflow[and-cuda]` works as originally intended for TensorFlow 2.15.
+    *   Support for TensorRT is otherwise unaffected as long as TensorRT is
+        already installed on the system.
+*   Using .post1 instead of a full minor release allowed us to push this release
+    out quickly. However, please note the following caveat:
+    *   For users wishing to pin their Python dependency in a requirements file
+        or other situation, under Python's version specification rules,
+        `tensorflow[and-cuda]==2.15.0` will not install this fixed version.
+        Please use `==2.15.0.post1` to specify this exact version on Linux
+        platforms, or a fuzzy version specification, such as `==2.15.*`, to
+        specify the most recent compatible version of TensorFlow 2.15 on all
+        platforms.
