Hello Kubernetes community.

The Enhancements freeze for Kubernetes 1.25 began at 18:00 PDT on Thursday, June 23rd, 2022.

The Enhancements team is currently tracking 55 enhancements for 1.25. We had a total of 76 enhancements opted-in for the release, and 21 were either removed before freeze or removed at the freeze for missing KEP requirements.

Exceptions

With the freeze in effect, SIG leads no longer have write access to the 1.25 Enhancements tracking sheet.

Any enhancements that wish to join the release now must have an approved exception. If you plan to submit an exception request, please submit it as soon as possible.

Next Steps

For enhancement authors, if your enhancement is tracked for 1.25 please continue to link all k/k and k/website pull requests to your k/enhancements issue for visibility.

The upcoming key dates are:

01:00 UTC Wednesday 3rd August 2022: Week 11 — Code Freeze
01:00 UTC Wednesday 10th August 2022: Week 12 — Test Freeze
Tuesday 16th August 2022: Week 13 — Docs must be completed and reviewed
Tuesday 23rd August 2022: Week 14 — Kubernetes v1.25.0 released

See the published schedule for full details.

As always, if you have any questions, please reach out to the enhancements team in #sig-release or #release-enhancements on Slack.
