+## Release notes for 2.3.1
+With the major version release of 2.3.1, all remnants of the original atlassian code have been pitched. A real effort
+was made to sustain backward compatibility. For a variety of reasons, this was not possible. In some cases it simply
+couldn't be supported.
+
+In this release, all the rest clients were replaced with a single client: [Resty](https://github.com/go-resty/resty).
+The last major release before this major bump was 2.2.15, and it had no less than 4 different clients in use. In some
+cases, the jfrog-client-go code could have worked, but in others cases it was fundamentally incompatible with the way
+terraform needed to operate as the jfrog go client directly interpreted results as being errored or not (using non-standard
+error codes). In addition, the objective of this release is *not* to upgrade to new APIs, but to simply get rid of all the clients
+and get the tests passing. Since several of the V1 apis that this TF provider uses are not available in the jf-go client
+this gave further reason to go it alone.
+
+The end result is much more transparent code and complete portability. The final approach taken was to use resty for all
+the calls and to manage authentication, but to use the jfg client for payload structure. In the case of xray, this was
+not possible, and the original structure code was preserved.
