+## v4.4.0
+
+This minor release mainly includes documentation changes, but also a small breaking change in [[a389629](https://github.com/aiidateam/aiida-quantumespresso/commit/a389629387b74805ffe2f4d6515ac05b8f62b4d5)].
+Work chains that wrap the `PwBaseWorkChain` for an `nscf` or `bands` calculation and add the `parent_folder` during runtime would have to adapt the `validator` for the `pw` name space as follows to avoid warnings:
+
+```python
+spec.inputs['nscf']['pw'].validator = PwCalculation.validate_inputs_base
+```
+
+Now, the validator that checks for the presence of the `parent_folder` in the inputs is adapted so it checks if the  `parent_folder` port is in the name space.
+If not, the validation is skipped.
+So work chains that wrap the `PwBaseWorkChain` to run an `nscf` or `bands` calculation can simply exclude the `parent_folder` port in the `pw` name space:
+
+```python
+    spec.expose_inputs(
+        PwBaseWorkChain,
+        namespace='nscf',
+        exclude=('clean_workdir', 'pw.structure', 'pw.parent_folder'),
+        namespace_options={
+            'help': 'Inputs for the `PwBaseWorkChain` of the `nscf` calculation.',
+            'validator': validate_nscf
+        }
+    )
+```
+
+The release also makes an import change in the dependencies related to a bug introduced in `pydantic`, see:
+
+https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic/issues/5821
+
+Hence the version of `pydantic` is adapted to `1.10.8`, where this bug is fixed.
