+### Disabling the meta generator tag
+
+The meta generator tag includes the current version of `silverstripe/framework`. This version number
+provides aggregate installation numbers to the product team who maintain Silverstripe CMS which is
+used to make informed product decisions.

+If you dislike this behaviour, the entire meta generator tag can be disabled via:

+```yml

 ### Modifying Meta Tags
 
 You can override the `MetaComponents()` method on your `SiteTree` sub-classes or make use of the `MetaComponents` extension point to manipulate the underlying data that is rendered by `$MetaTags`. Example (for `Page` class):

 The [Preview Documentation](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/developer_guides/customising_the_admin_interface/preview/) has been updated with code examples which show how to enable CMS preview on `DataObject`s in a couple of different scenarios.
 
+### Meta generator tag now shows framework version number
+
+The meta generator tag, which can be seen in the meta tags when you view source on a regular page, now includes the framework version truncated to show just the major and minor version, e.g. 4.11.

+This version number will provide aggregate installation numbers to the product team who maintain Silverstripe CMS which will be used to make informed product decisions.

 ### Other new features {#other-features}
 
 - A new [AbstractGridFieldComponent](https://api.silverstripe.org/4/SilverStripe/Forms/GridField/AbstractGridFieldComponent.html) class has been added to make it easier to globally add fundamental functionality to `GridFieldComponent`s. All classes packaged with the Silverstripe framework which implement the `GridFieldComponent` interface are subclasses of the new abstract class, making them all `Injectable`. Maintainers of third-party packages which include classes that implement `GridFieldComponent` are encouraged to subclass the `AbstractGridFieldComponent` abstract class.
 - New options have been added to the [dnadesign/silverstripe-elemental module](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-elemental) to control what content is indexed for searching elemental blocks. see [the documentation](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-elemental/blob/4/docs/en/searching-blocks.md) for details.
