             ## Security Notice
-            The official Python FTP does not currently provide macOS packages for Python 3.9.14 and higher. This means that this project cannot use the most recent version of Python 3.9 with all security updates. Proceed with caution when using this release.
+            The python org [does not provide macOS packages for Python 3.9.14 and higher](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3914/). This means that this project cannot use the most recent version of Python 3.9 with all security updates. Proceed with caution when using this release.

+            > According to the release calendar specified in PEP 596, Python 3.9 is now in the "security fixes only" stage of its life cycle: the 3.9 branch only accepts security fixes and releases of those are made irregularly in source-only form until October 2025. Python 3.9 isn't receiving regular bug fixes anymore, and binary installers are no longer provided for it. Python 3.9.13 was the last full bugfix release of Python 3.9 with binary installers.
