+We haven't done a release since early in the year, but we wanted to give an update on the progress we've made since then: 
+- Combination of Linux Networking and IPsec recipe: Enables running the Linux networking and IPsec Recipes together at the same time, including tunneling and de-tunneling both network virtualization (ie VXLAN) and IPsec headers at the same time on a packet
+- P4 Role Configuration to support multiple control planes simultaneously: Used to support OVS and strongSwan simultaneously
+- Support for LAG LACP (802.3ad) mode in Linux Networking: Capable of active-active LACP
+- Table Defaults: Support for setting and resetting the default action/entry of LEM/SEM/WCM/LPM tables
+- Geneve: Geneve Tunnel Encap/Decap Support in addition to VXLAN
+- Remote traffic mirroring: Mirroring traffic to a remote destination outside of the IPDK target
+- Unit Tests: Expansion of the unit test suite
+- E2100 (Mount Evans) Updates: IPDK Release 24.01 was based on E2100's 1.2 SDK. IPDK can be used with newer versions of the SDK which brings additional features and bug fixes.
+
+Most of these enhancements are coming through the P4 Control Plane which has had steady releases throughout the year, found here: (https://github.com/ipdk-io/networking-recipe/releases)[https://github.com/ipdk-io/networking-recipe/releases]
