Dear Kubernetes Community,
Tl;dr: Kubernetes patch releases planned for October are moved to Tuesday, October 22, 2024.
Due to the issues that we encountered while updating Go to 1.23.2/1.22.8[1,2], we were not able to finish the update process in time for the cherry-pick deadline. Because the Go updates are already in progress, we made a decision to delay the October patch releases for one week (October 22, 2024) to be able to finish the process and fully incorporate the latest Go releases.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Release Managers on the #sig-release Slack channel[3].
Thank you for understanding!
Marko Mudrinić,
on behalf of Kubernetes SIG Release
