+## Overview
+
+RAPIDS is planning to deprecate support of CUDA 12.2 Docker containers in Release `v24.08`, and to cease publishing CUDA 12.2 Docker containers before the `v24.10` release.
+The CUDA 12.2 containers will be replaced by CUDA 12.5 containers.
+We are continuing support for CUDA 11.8 and 12.0 containers.
+
+## Impact
+
+Effective RAPIDS `v24.08` release, RAPIDS will cease distribution of CUDA 12.2 Docker containers.
+RAPIDS will continue to support CUDA 11.8, 12.0 and 12.5 containers.
+Users who still wish to use CUDA 12.2 (or other versions in the CUDA 11.x or 12.x series) may continue to use RAPIDS via conda or pip.
