+## 4.0.0
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+* Deleted the deprecated `ProcessBuilderConstructor`, `MethodProcessBuilderCommand`, and `MethodRuntimeExec` from `JDK.qll`. 
+* Deleted the deprecated `explorationLimit` predicate from `DataFlow::Configuration`, use `FlowExploration<explorationLimit>` instead.
+* Deleted many deprecated taint-tracking configurations based on `TaintTracking::Configuration`. 
+* Deleted the deprecated `getURI` predicate from `CamelJavaDslToDecl` and `SpringCamelXmlToElement`, use `getUri` instead.
+* Deleted the deprecated `ExecCallable` class from `ExternalProcess.qll`.
+* Deleted many deprecated dataflow configurations based on `DataFlow::Configuration`. 
+* Deleted the deprecated `PathCreation.qll` file.
+* Deleted the deprecated `WebviewDubuggingEnabledQuery.qll` file.
+
+### Major Analysis Improvements
+
+* A generated (Models as Data) summary model is no longer used, if there exists a source code alternative. This primarily affects the analysis, when the analysis includes generated models for the source code being analysed.
+
 ## 3.0.2
