+The openSUSE community is excited to announce the official release of [Leap Micro 6.1]((https://get.opensuse.org/leapmicro/6.1/). 
+
+Leap Micro continues its alignment with SUSE Linux Enterprise Micro, ensuring robust container and virtual machine hosting capabilities. The release has a new `opensuse-migration-tool`, whic simplifies upgrades for smoother transitions between releases. Some enhanced features include soft-reboot support. Two-factor authentication (TOTP) for PAM logins improves security. There are additional tools like `vhostmd` for SAP Virtualization and improvements to the `jeos-firstboot` wizard and more.
+
+The release of Leap Micro 6.1 signals the **End of Life (EOL) for Leap Micro 5.5**. Users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to either Leap Micro 6.0 or 6.1 to continue receiving updates and support. 
+
