+Version `4.0.0` onwards we do not support the `testcontainers-*` packages as it is unsutainable to maintain ownership.
 
 Instead packages can be installed by specifying `extras <https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html#declaring-extras-optional-features-with-their-own-dependencies>`__, e.g., :code:`pip install testcontainers[postgres]`.
 
-Please note, that community modules are supported on a best-effort basis and breaking changes DO NOT create major versions in the package.
-Therefore, only the package core is strictly following SemVer. If your workflow is broken by a minor update, please look at the changelogs for guidance.

+When trying to launch a testcontainer from within a Docker container, e.g., in continuous integration testing, two things have to be provided:
 
 1. The container has to provide a docker client installation. Either use an image that has docker pre-installed (e.g. the `official docker images <https://hub.docker.com/_/docker>`_) or install the client from within the `Dockerfile` specification.
 2. The container has to have access to the docker daemon which can be achieved by mounting `/var/run/docker.sock` or setting the `DOCKER_HOST` environment variable as part of your `docker run` command.
 
-Private Docker registry
------------------------
-
-Using a private docker registry requires the `DOCKER_AUTH_CONFIG` environment variable to be set.
-`official documentation <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/login/#credential-helpers>`_
-
-The value of this variable should be a JSON string containing the authentication information for the registry.
-
-Example:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    DOCKER_AUTH_CONFIG='{"auths": {"https://myregistry.com": {"auth": "dXNlcm5hbWU6cGFzc3dvcmQ="}}}'
-
-In order to generate the JSON string, you can use the following command:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    echo -n '{"auths": {"<url>": {"auth": "'$(echo -n "<username>:<password>" | base64 -w 0)'"}}}'
-
-Fetching passwords from cloud providers:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    ECR_PASSWORD = $(aws ecr get-login-password --region eu-west-1)
-    GCP_PASSWORD = $(gcloud auth print-access-token)
-    AZURE_PASSWORD = $(az acr login --name <registry-name> --expose-token --output tsv)
