Robot Framework 4.1.3 contains a fix to a regression related to parsing reStructuredText files (4124) that was introduced in Robot Framework 4.1.2.

Robot Framework 4.1.2 contains a considerable enhancement to memory usage along with some bug fixes. It is the last planned release in the whole Robot Framework 4.x series and also the last planned release to support Python 2 that itself [has not been supported since January 2020](https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/). Unfortunately this also means the end of our [Jython](http://jython.org) and [IronPython](http://ironpython.net) support, at least until they get Python 3 compatible versions released.

Robot Framework 4.1.1 is mostly a bug fix release, but it also adds official [Python 3.10](https://docs.python.org/3.10/whatsnew/3.10.html) support. For more details see the [full release notes](https://github.com/robotframework/robotframework/blob/master/doc/releasenotes/rf-4.1.1.rst).
