+Release Summary
+---------------
+
+| Release Date: 2024-0108
+| This release provides an Ansible compliance change required on top of the changes included in
+| the 2.3.0 release of the enterprise_sonic Ansible network resource module collection.
+| It addresses an issue raised by the Ansible core team with the content of the 2.3.0 release,
+| and provides accompanying documentation changes in the README file. Additional details are
+| described below.
+| 1) Update the "requires_ansible" version in the meta/runtime.yml file for this collection
+| to the oldest supported version of ansible-core. (This was recently changed by Redhat/Ansible
+| to version "2.14.0".)
+| 2) Update the README file "Recommended version" values for Ansible and Python in accordance
+| with the previous change item to modify the oldest supported version of ansible-core which,
+| in turn, requires a Python version >= "3.9".
+| 3) Update the list of resource modules in the README file to include all currently available
+| resource modules for this collection.
