 Changes in |csit-release|
 -------------------------
 
+#. TEST FRAMEWORK
+
+   - **CSIT test environment** version has been updated to ver. 10, see
+     :ref:`test_environment_versioning`.
+
 #. DPDK PERFORMANCE TESTS
 
-   - **Intel Xeon 2n-skx, 3n-skx and 2n-clx testbeds**: Testpmd and
-     L3fwd performance test data is not included in this report
-     version. This is due to the lower performance and behaviour
-     inconsistency of these systems following the upgrade of processor
-     microcode packages (skx ucode 0x2000064, clx ucode 0x500002c) as
-     part of updating Ubuntu 18.04 LTS kernel version. Tested VPP and
-     DPDK applications (L3fwd) are affected. Skx and Clx test data
-     will be added in subsequent maintenance report version(s) once
-     the issue is resolved. See :ref:`dpdk_known_issues`.
+   - **Arm Ampere Altra**: Performance test data for these platforms
+     is now provided by testbeds newly installed in FD.io CSIT labs.
+     For details about the physical setup see
+     :ref:`physical_testbeds_3n_alt`.
 
 #. DPDK RELEASE VERSION CHANGE
 
    - |csit-release| tested |dpdk-release|, as used by |vpp-release|.
 
-..
-    // Alternative Note for 1st Bullet when bad microcode Skx, Clx results are published
-    - **Intel Xeon 2n-skx, 3n-skx and 2n-clx testbeds**: Testpmd and
-      L3fwd performance test data is included in this report version,
-      but it shows lower performance and behaviour inconsistency of
-      these systems following the upgrade of processor microcode
-      packages (skx ucode 0x2000064, clx ucode 0x500002c) as part of
-      updating Ubuntu 18.04 LTS kernel version. Tested VPP and DPDK
-      applications (L3fwd) are affected. Skx and Clx test data will be
-      corrected in subsequent maintenance report version(s) once the
-      issue is resolved. See :ref:`vpp_known_issues`.
