-Our latest release is [Recommenders 1.1.1](https://github.com/microsoft/recommenders/releases/tag/1.1.1)! 
-
-We have introduced a new way of testing our repository using [AzureML](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/machine-learning/). With AzureML we are able to distribute our tests to different machines and run them in parallel. This allows us to test our repository on a wider range of machines and provides us with a much faster test cycle. Our total computation time went from around 9h to 35min, and we were able to reduce the costs by half. See more details [here](tests/README.md).
-
-We also made other improvements like faster evaluation metrics and improving SAR algorithm.

 Starting with release 0.6.0, Recommenders has been available on PyPI and can be installed using pip!
