+> Milestone: [v23.3 Hotfixes](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/milestone/8)
 
-### Breaking changes
+❤️ A heartfelt "Thank You" to [Roman Shevchik](https://github.com/antikorol) and [Massimiliano Innocenti](https://github.com/minnocenti901) for their contributions in testing and reporting the [Service Discovery](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/labels/Service%20Discovery) issues, #2110 and #2119, respectively!
 
-- The `ILoadBalancer` interface: The `Lease` method was renamed to `LeaseAsync`.
+### ℹ️ About
+This release delivers a number of bug fixes for the predecessor's [23.3.0](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/releases/tag/23.3.0) release, which is full of new features but was not tested well. All bugs were combined into the [v23.3 Hotfixes](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/milestone/8) milestone.
+
+Following the substantial refactoring of [Service Discovery](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/blob/main/docs/features/servicediscovery.rst) providers in the [23.3.0](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/releases/tag/23.3.0) release, the community identified and we have acknowledged several [critical service discovery defects](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%22v23.3+Hotfixes%22+label%3A%22Service+Discovery%22) with providers such as [Kube](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/blob/main/docs/features/kubernetes.rst) and [Consul](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/blob/main/docs/features/servicediscovery.rst#consul). The `Kube` provider, while somewhat unstable, remained operational; however, the `Consul` provider was entirely non-functional.
+
+📓 If your projects rely on the [Service Discovery](https://ocelot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/features/servicediscovery.html) feature and cannot function without it, please upgrade to this version to utilize the full list of features of version [23.3.0](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/releases/tag/23.3.0).
+
+### 🧑‍💻 Technical Information
+A comprehensive explanation of the technical details would span several pages; therefore, it is advisable for fans of Ocelot to review all pertinent technical information within the issue descriptions associated with [the milestone](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/milestone/8).
+Our team has implemented some **Breaking Changes** which we urge you to review carefully (details follow).
+
+### ⚠️ Breaking Changes
+Listed by priority:
+- `ILoadBalancer` interface alteration: Method `Lease` is now `LeaseAsync`.
   Interface FQN: `Ocelot.LoadBalancer.LoadBalancers.ILoadBalancer`
-  Method FQN:  `Ocelot.LoadBalancer.LoadBalancers.ILoadBalancer.LeaseAsync`
-- TO BE Written
+  Method FQN: `Ocelot.LoadBalancer.LoadBalancers.ILoadBalancer.LeaseAsync`
+- `DefaultConsulServiceBuilder` constructor modification: The first parameter's type has been changed from `Func<ConsulRegistryConfiguration>` to `IHttpContextAccessor`.
+  Class FQN: `Ocelot.Provider.Consul.DefaultConsulServiceBuilder`
+  Constructor signature: `public DefaultConsulServiceBuilder(IHttpContextAccessor contextAccessor, IConsulClientFactory clientFactory, IOcelotLoggerFactory loggerFactory)`
+- Adjustments to `Lease` type: The `Lease` has been restructured from a class to a structure and elevated in the namespace hierarchy.
+  Struct FQN: `Ocelot.LoadBalancer.Lease`
+
+📓 Should your [custom solutions](https://ocelot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/search.html?q=custom) involve overriding default Ocelot classes and their behavior, redevelopment or at least recompilation of the solution, followed by deployment, will be necessary.
