 ## Versioning
 
 In pyslurm, the versioning scheme follows the official Slurm versioning. The
 first two numbers (`MAJOR.MINOR`) always correspond to Slurms Major-Release,
-for example `23.11`.
+for example `24.05`.
 The last number (`MICRO`) is however not tied in any way to Slurms `MICRO`
 version, but is instead PySlurm's internal Patch-Level. For example, any
-pyslurm 23.11.X version should work with any Slurm 23.11.X release.
+pyslurm 24.05.X version should work with any Slurm 24.05.X release.
