+## Release v23.10.0
+### Hardware Requirements:
+
+The plugin is tested on the following architectures:
+
+	GPU Models: NVIDIA P100, V100, T4, A10/A100, L4 and H100 GPUs
+
+### Software Requirements:
+
+	OS: Ubuntu 20.04, Ubuntu 22.04, CentOS 7, or Rocky Linux 8
+
+	NVIDIA Driver*: R470+
+
+	Runtime: 
+		Scala 2.12
+		Python, Java Virtual Machine (JVM) compatible with your spark-version. 
+
+		* Check the Spark documentation for Python and Java version compatibility with your specific 
+		Spark version. For instance, visit `https://spark.apache.org/docs/3.4.1` for Spark 3.4.1. 
+		Please be aware that we do not currently support Spark builds with Scala 2.13.
+
+	Supported Spark versions:
+		Apache Spark 3.2.0, 3.2.1, 3.2.2, 3.2.3, 3.2.4
+		Apache Spark 3.3.0, 3.3.1, 3.3.2, 3.3.3

+
+*Some hardware may have a minimum driver version greater than R470. Check the GPU spec sheet
+for your hardware's minimum driver version.
+
+*For Cloudera and EMR support, please refer to the
+[Distributions](https://docs.nvidia.com/spark-rapids/user-guide/latest/faq.html#which-distributions-are-supported) section of the FAQ.
+
+#### RAPIDS Accelerator's Support Policy for Apache Spark
+The RAPIDS Accelerator maintains support for Apache Spark versions available for download from [Apache Spark](https://spark.apache.org/downloads.html)
+
+### Download v23.10.0
+* Download the [RAPIDS
+  Accelerator for Apache Spark 23.10.0 jar](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/nvidia/rapids-4-spark_2.12/23.10.0/rapids-4-spark_2.12-23.10.0.jar)
+
+This package is built against CUDA 11.8. It is tested on V100, T4, A10, A100, L4 and H100 GPUs with 
+CUDA 11.8 through CUDA 12.0.
+
+### Verify signature
+* Download the [RAPIDS Accelerator for Apache Spark 23.10.0 jar](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/nvidia/rapids-4-spark_2.12/23.10.0/rapids-4-spark_2.12-23.10.0.jar)
+  and [RAPIDS Accelerator for Apache Spark 23.10.0 jars.asc](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/nvidia/rapids-4-spark_2.12/23.10.0/rapids-4-spark_2.12-23.10.0.jar.asc)
+* Download the [PUB_KEY](https://keys.openpgp.org/search?q=sw-spark@nvidia.com).
+* Import the public key: `gpg --import PUB_KEY`
+* Verify the signature: `gpg --verify rapids-4-spark_2.12-23.10.0.jar.asc rapids-4-spark_2.12-23.10.0.jar`
+
+The output of signature verify:
+
+	gpg: Good signature from "NVIDIA Spark (For the signature of spark-rapids release jars) <sw-spark@nvidia.com>"
+
+### Release Notes
+New functionality and performance improvements for this release include:
+* Introduced support for Spark 3.5.0.
+* Improved memory management for better control in YARN and K8s on CSP.
+* Strengthened Parquet and ORC tests for enhanced stability and support.
+* Reduce GPU out-of-memory (OOM) occurrences.
+* Enhanced driver log with actionable insights.
+* Qualification and Profiling tool:
+	* Enhanced user experience with the availability of the 'ascli' tool for qualification and 
+	profiling across all platforms.
+	* The qualification tool now accommodates CPU-fallback transitions and broadens the speedup factor coverage.
+	* Extended diagnostic support for user tools to cover EMR, Databricks AWS, and Databricks Azure.
+	* Introduced support for cluster configuration recommendations in the profiling tool for supported platforms.
+
+For a detailed list of changes, please refer to the
