+- `#11081 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11081>`_: The :confval:`norecursedirs` check is now performed in a :hook:`pytest_ignore_collect` implementation, so plugins can affect it.
+
+  If after updating to this version you see that your `norecursedirs` setting is not being respected,
+  it means that a conftest or a plugin you use has a bad `pytest_ignore_collect` implementation.
+  Most likely, your hook returns `False` for paths it does not want to ignore,
+  which ends the processing and doesn't allow other plugins, including pytest itself, to ignore the path.
+  The fix is to return `None` instead of `False` for paths your hook doesn't want to ignore.

+
+
+- `#11068 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11068>`_: Fixed the ``--last-failed`` whole-file skipping functionality ("skipped N files") for :ref:`non-python test files <non-python tests>`.
+
+
+- `#11104 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11104>`_: Fixed a regression in pytest 7.3.2 which caused to :confval:`testpaths` to be considered for loading initial conftests,
+  even when it was not utilized (e.g. when explicit paths were given on the command line).
+  Now the ``testpaths`` are only considered when they are in use.
+
+
+- `#1904 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1904>`_: Fixed traceback entries hidden with ``__tracebackhide__ = True`` still being shown for chained exceptions (parts after "... the above exception ..." message).
+
+
+- `#7781 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7781>`_: Fix writing non-encodable text to log file when using ``--debug``.

+:class:`pytest.Package` is no longer a :class:`pytest.Module` or :class:`pytest.File`
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. versionchanged:: 8.0
+
+The ``Package`` collector node designates a Python package, that is, a directory with an `__init__.py` file.
+Previously ``Package`` was a subtype of ``pytest.Module`` (which represents a single Python module),
+the module being the `__init__.py` file.
+This has been deemed a design mistake (see :issue:`11137` and :issue:`7777` for details).
+
+The ``path`` property of ``Package`` nodes now points to the package directory instead of the ``__init__.py`` file.
+
+Note that a ``Module`` node for ``__init__.py`` (which is not a ``Package``) may still exist,
+if it is picked up during collection (e.g. if you configured :confval:`python_files` to include ``__init__.py`` files).

+.. versionremoved:: 8.0
+
+Running `pytest pkg/__init__.py` now collects the `pkg/__init__.py` file (module) only.
+Previously, it collected the entire `pkg` package, including other test files in the directory, but excluding tests in the `__init__.py` file itself
+(unless :confval:`python_files` was changed to allow `__init__.py` file).

+Pytest Plugin List
+==================
 
-PyPI projects that match "pytest-\*" are considered plugins and are listed
-automatically together with a manually-maintained list in `the source
-code <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/blob/main/scripts/update-plugin-list.py>`_.
+Below is an automated compilation of ``pytest``` plugins available on `PyPI <https://pypi.org>`_.
+It includes PyPI projects whose names begin with "pytest-" and a handful of manually selected projects.
 Packages classified as inactive are excluded.
 
+For detailed insights into how this list is generated,
+please refer to `the update script <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/blob/main/scripts/update-plugin-list.py>`_.
+
+.. warning::
+
+   Please be aware that this list is not a curated collection of projects
+   and does not undergo a systematic review process.
+   It serves purely as an informational resource to aid in the discovery of ``pytest`` plugins.
+
+   Do not presume any endorsement from the ``pytest`` project or its developers,
+   and always conduct your own quality assessment before incorporating any of these plugins into your own projects.
+
+
 .. The following conditional uses a different format for this list when
    creating a PDF, because otherwise the table gets far too wide for the
    page.
