- Kiali - MR:
- By default, Kiali has access to all namespaces within a given cluster. However, if you have restricted access to only specific namespaces, please review this note prior to upgrading, as the methodology behind this has changed.
- External-secrets - MR:
- If you are deploying any deprecated v1alpha1 custom resources, your deployment may break with this patch. Please upgrade resources to non-deprecated versions.
- BBTOC- MR
- In an effort to provide more clarity on where each package stands within Big Bang, we have implemented the Package Maintenance Tracks as approved by the BBTOC. This should provide more information on how different packages are maintained and tested. In order to facilitate this, each package that is maintained & integrated by Big Bang (not community maintained packages) now has a badge added on the readme to identify what track each package is on.
