+            # Flavors of Python
+            At this time, the automated build process will **only** create the Recommended package
+
+            ## Recommended
+            This is a Python.framework that contains everything from minimal, and a few libraries that various well known open source projects require.
+
+            ## Signing/Notarization
+            The signed package is fully notarized, including the Python.framework file
