Release Schedule

Next Deadline: 1.25 Released, August 23rd

Kubernetes 1.25 has been released! Big congrats to everyone who worked on it. Check out the blog post and release notes for more information.

1.24.4, 1.23.10, and 1.22.13 came out last week. This update fixes JobTrackingWithFinalizers and a bunch of memory leaks, and updates Golang.

Reversions

• GCP and Azure in-tree auth plugins have been replaced in 1.25, to fix an issue with exec; they will be removed in 1.26
• Conditionally disabling compression has been removed from 1.25 due to some concerns from API-Machinery and Scalability; it may or may not reappear for 1.26
