+---
+
+The Warewulf project is pleased to announce the release of v4.5.8, [now
+available on GitHub][1].
+
+[1]: https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf/releases/tag/v4.5.8
+
+Warewulf v4.5.8 simplifies the "wwinit" boot process for SELinux and configures
+tmpfs to spread the node image across all available NUMA nodes. It also
+improves the detection of kernels in the container image to more reliably
+detect the newest available kernel and to avoid debug / rescue kernels.
+
+This release also includes additional bug fixes and documentation improvements.
+
+[Let us know][2] if you encounter any issues. Our attention is increasingly
+focused on [the next major release, v4.6.0][3], but we will continue to
+maintain v4.5.x if significant issues are discovered prior to its release.
