-        <p>
-          We're proud to annouce GNOME To Do 3.91.1!
-        </p>
-        <p>
-          GNOME To Do 3.92.1 is the first alpha release of the next version, 4.0, and introduces a remarkable
-          change in the main user experiece by switching to a sidebar-based layout.
-        </p>
-        <p>
-          The new layout is more streamlined and suits better the needs of more advanced users, without letting
-          go of the simplicity that was always a signature of GNOME To Do.
-        </p>
-        <p>
-          This gives the flexibility needed for the introduction of new panels and plugins, which was simply
-          not possible with the previous layout.
-        </p>
-        <p>This release also updates translations, and adds new translations.</p>

-        <p>
-          We're proud to annouce GNOME To Do 3.28.0!
-        </p>
-        <p>
-          GNOME To Do 3.28 is a major improvement over the previous versions, and introduces
-          exciting new features and important fixes. The highlights of this release are:
-          <ul>
-            <li>The Todoist integration was much polished and improved, and should work more reliably now.</li>
-            <li>A big performance issue on startup was fixed. GNOME To Do should start much faster for users with many tasks.</li>
-            <li>Google Tasks integration was fixed, and completed tasks now are correctly detected.</li>
-            <li>Integration with Evolution received lots of improvements and fixes, and is reaching a mature state.</li>
-            <li>Nightly Flatpaks have debugging and tracing enabled, allowing early testers to accurately report issues in To Do.</li>
-            <li>A major rework of the task lists interface landed, bringing a much improved experience when managing your tasks!</li>
-          </ul>
-        </p>
-        <p>
-          One major drawback of this release is that the Todo.txt integration plugin lost the ability to handle subtasks. If you
-          rely on that feature, please refrain from using this version of GNOME To Do.
-        </p>
-        <p>
-          It is important to notice that Todoist and Todo.txt integrations are still considered experimental, and should not be
-          used in production environments.

-        <p>This release also updates translations, and adds new translations.</p>

       <description>
         <p>
-          We're proud to annouce GNOME To Do 3.27.90, the alpha release of the
-          next stable release that is going to be released this semester.
+          After 4 years in development, we are proud to annouce GNOME To Do 40.0!
         </p>
         <p>
-          The highlights of this release are:
+          GNOME To Do 40 brings major improvements:
           <ul>
-            <li>The Todoist integration was much polished and improved, and should work more reliably now.</li>
-            <li>A big performance issue on startup was fixed. GNOME To Do should start much faster for users with many tasks.</li>
-            <li>Nightly Flatpaks have debugging and tracing enabled, allowing early testers to accurately report issues in To Do.</li>
-            <li>Google Tasks integration was fixed, and completed tasks now are correctly detected.</li>
-            <li>Many small polishes in the user interface.</li>
+            <li>
+              Loading, saving, and editing tasks is now completely asynchronous. This
+              should bring much better performance, particularly when dealing with
+              very large task lists.
+            </li>
+            <li>
+              The user interface was largely redesigned. It now features a sidebar that
+              collapses when the window is too small. Task editing is done in place now.
+            </li>
+            <li>GNOME To Do now uses GTK4!</li>
+            <li>
+              A welcome screen, and more welcoming empty states, should make To Do more
+              rewarding and engaging to use.
+            </li>
           </ul>
         </p>
         <p>
-          One major drawback of this release is that the Todo.txt integration plugin
-          lost the ability to handle subtasks. If you rely on that feature, please

-          This is the first stable release for GNOME 3.22, and adds many new features
