Trying from my google account, as the email from my non-google account didn't arrive (for 1h already).

    Enhancement name: Support User Namespaces in pods
    Enhancement status (alpha/beta/stable): beta
    SIG: sig-node
    k/enhancements repo issue #: kep.k8s.io/127
    PR #’s: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/132868/
    Additional time needed (in days): 5 (weekend + 3 days)
The code is ready, 5 days is just to make sure reviewers can review in time. We just got the first review for this PR very close to the freeze, that's why we are late.

    Reason this enhancement is critical for this milestone:

It will delay GA graduation. Also, improving the validation should be done sooner rather than later.

    Risks from adding code late: (to k8s stability, testing, etc.)

Small, the PR code is small and well tested and scoped to user-namespaces parts.

    Risks from cutting enhancement: (partial implementation, critical customer usecase, etc.)

It will delay GA graduation for at least one quarter.
