+- various enhancements, including:
+  - add support for checksums specified in external `checksums.json` file (#3749)
+  - vendor distutils.version.LooseVersion as easybuild.tools.LooseVersion (since distutils is deprecated in Python 3.10) (#3794, #4156)
+  - take into account custom configuration options specified in easystack file (#4057)
+  - add support for using --output-format=md (MarkDown) (#4117, #4155)
+  - add support for --filter-rpath-sanity-libs to skip RPATH sanity check for designated libraries (#4119)
+  - add sanity_check_load_module method to EasyBlock to provide control over when module is loaded during sanity check step (#4125)
+  - add eb_bash_completion_local.bash script to setup.py (#4127)
+  - check whether nvidia-smi/rocm-smi command is available before trying to run it in `get_gpu_info` (#4131)
+  - add gfbf as subtoolchain of foss (#4143)
+  - add support for postinstallmsgs (#4145)
+  - make iimkl toolchain aware of intel-compilers (#4146)
+  - add definition for nvofbf toolchain (#4157, #4163)
+- various bug fixes, including:
+  - also use EasyConfig instances cache in process_easyconfig when build_specs is empty dict (#4107)
+  - fix build options that should have empty list as default value (#4108)
+  - catch easyconfig parsing failure so we can generate and post a test report (#4109)
+  - add explicit return when no checksums match those specified in a tuple (#4112)
+  - tweak findPythonDeps.py script to use canonical package names (#4118)
+  - add `-fdefault-double-8` to `r8` toolchain compiler option for GCC (to be consistent with Intel) (#4121)
+  - always start with empty list for banned/requires libraries to avoid that corresponding build option is updated in-place (#4137)
+  - fix container tests by using EPEL archive URL for downloading Singularity RPM (#4138)
+  - use -march=x86-64 -mtune=generic instead of -xSSE2 when using Intel oneAPI compilers (#4147)
+  - partially skip test_det_copy_ec_specs if no GitHub token is available (#4149)
+- other changes:
+  - drop support for easystack files using 'software' top-level key (#4057)
+  - also run unit tests with Python 3.11 + add Python 3.11 to classifiers in setup.py (#4092, #4141)
+  - use new EasyBuild logo in README (#4123)
+  - automatically cancel Github Action workflow runs for outdated commits (#4132)
+  - auto-enable use of oneAPI C/C++ compilers for intel-compilers >= 2022.2.0 (#4135)
+  - trim CI test configurations to avoid hitting GitHub rate limits (#4148)
+  - various tweaks to docstrings and help messages to fix problems with auto-generated documentation in MarkDown format (#4129, #4130, #4154, #4160, #4162, #4168)
+  - update copyright lines for 2023 (#4161)
