per our conversation on 8/25, tensorflow is supported in both and the other frameworks are the enhancement.

Some proposed changes. @annajung I am still having trouble making edits inline, not sure why but maybe you can review these proposed changes.

Line 2 (to use alpha instead of experimental) Kubeflow v1.6 delivers support for Kubernetes v1.22 and introduces an alpha release of Kubeflow Pipeline v2 functionality

Line 13-14 (added words to make more readable) The Kubeflow Community is excited to announce the availability of the Kubeflow v1.6 software release, which includes support for Kubernetes v1.22 and introduces an alpha release of Kubeflow Pipeline v2 (KFP v2) functionality.

Line 19-21 (note - this includes deleting some current content and replacing with below) Additionally, 1.6 cleans up a few CVEs in the central dashboard and enables PodDefaults webhook to pick-up new certificate updates. For the Kubernetes upgrade, the community developed and tested each Kubeflow component manifest for Kubernetes v1.22. As v1.22 introduced some breaking changes, the upgrade was a team effort, and this Kubeflow release management process will be useful in the community's future updates of Kubernetes and other software dependencies.

Line 35 (just adding v to 1.6) To round back to the current software delivery, the following takes a deeper look at the v1.6 highlights in more detail.

Line 41 (change name of slide deck to match the name of the slide deck) change from "Understand KFP" to "KFP v2 Introduction"

Future To Do: We should consider adding a link in the blog post to the Kubeflow 1.6 video presentation. We do not have that link, which will be on Youtube. Once that link is up, we should consider adding it to the blog post, perhaps at the end of the summary paragraph near the top to the post i.e. ~ The Kubeflow Working Group leads and Release Team have recorded a review of Kubeflow v1.6's features, which you can view here (link TBD).
