Release Schedule

Next Deadline: Release Notes Complete, December 2nd

We are so close to 1.26! There’s the release notes to finish up and release blog, and then we should release the new version on December 6th.

That’s assuming that all failing tests stay fixed, of course! Right now boards are green, but pay attention to your GitHub notifications and respond quickly to failed test bugs. Many thanks to Wojciech Tyczynski, Patrick Ohly, and everyone else who contributed to the massive testing refactor this year.

The cherry-pick deadline for the next set of patch releases is also December 2nd.

Merges

• Backport using registry.k8s.io to kubeadm 1.23 and 1.24
• The endpoint recycler can delete the apiserver lease on shutdown; backported to all versions
• scheduler_pending_pods has good numbers now

Deprecated

• Leader Elections using ConfigMaps or Secrets will be going away at some point in the future and everyone should be using Leases instead
