 # Changelog
 
-## v4.10.0 - 2022-xx-xx
+## v4.10.0 - 2022-12-27
 
 **Security**
 
-This minor version bumps minimum Go version to 1.17 (from 1.16) due `golang.org/x/` packages we depend on. There are 
-several vulnerabilities fixed in these libraries. 
+* We are deprecating JWT middleware in this repository. Please use https://github.com/labstack/echo-jwt instead. 
 
-Echo still tries to support last 4 Go versions but there are occasions we can not guarantee this promise.
+  JWT middleware is moved to separate repository to allow us to bump/upgrade version of JWT implementation (`github.com/golang-jwt/jwt`) we are using
+which we can not do in Echo core because this would break backwards compatibility guarantees we try to maintain.
