Hi @xing-yang, 1.22 Enhancements Shadow here.

The KEP looks all good, however, the status of the KEP on Enhancement track sheet will be at risk until the KEP is merged into master.

Thanks!

[gracenng]

Hi @xing-yang 👋 1.22 Enhancements shadow here. To help SIG's be aware of their workload, I just wanted to check to see if SIG-Storage will need to do anything for this enhancement and if so, are they OK with it? Thanks!

[JamesLaverack]

Hi @deepakkinni, 1.22 Enhancements Lead here. :wave: With enhancements freeze now in effect we are removing this enhancement from the 1.22 release.

Feel free to file an exception to add this back to the release. If you plan to do so, please file this as early as possible.

Thanks! /milestone clear

[lauralorenz]

Hi @xing-yang, @deepakkinni! 1.23 Enhancements team here. Just checking in as we approach enhancements freeze on Thursday 09/09.

If I understand correctly, you are targeting alpha stage in release 1.23.

Here's where this enhancement currently stands:

• [ ] KEP file using the latest template has been merged into the k/enhancements repo.
• [ ] KEP status is marked as implementable (filled out in PR, not merged)
• [ ] KEP has a test plan section filled out. (filled out in PR, not merged)
• [ ] KEP has up to date graduation criteria. (filled out in PR, not merged)
• [ ] KEP has a production readiness review that has been completed and merged into k/enhancements. (filled out in PR, not merged)

Starting with 1.23, we have implemented a soft freeze on production readiness reviews beginning tomorrow, Thursday 09/02. It looks like you already have the questionnaire filled out in your PR and have a PRR reviewer associated, so you are on track for tomorrow's soft freeze!

Thanks!

Hi @xing-yang, @deepakkinni :wave: 1.23 Docs shadow here.

This enhancement is marked as Needs Docs for the 1.23 release.

Please follow the steps detailed in the documentation to open a PR against the dev-1.23 branch in the k/website repo. This PR can be just a placeholder at this time and must be created before Thu November 18, 11:59 PM PDT.

Also, if needed take a look at Documenting for a release to familiarize yourself with the docs requirement for the release.

Thanks!

[xing-yang]

Hi @ramrodo, We looked at this again and decided that this does not need a doc change. Can you please help remove "Need Docs" from the feature tracking sheet? Thanks!

[xing-yang]

Also the required in-tree PR for this KEP is merged: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105773 We are on-track for 1.23.

[lauralorenz]

Hi @xing-yang, enhancements 1.23 shadow again! Just double checking everything before code freeze TOMORROW at 6:00 pm PST on Tuesday, November 16. Please ensure that

• ~all PRs to the Kubernetes repo related to your enhancement are fully merged by the code freeze deadline~ (It looks like you've already got https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105773 merged. :tada:)
• ~have a documentation placeholder PR open by Thursday, November 18.~ (Based on the comment above https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/2644#issuecomment-969254951 it looks like you are expecting not to open one but will let @ramrodo speak to that from their side.)

Thanks!!

[ramrodo]

Confirmed this doesn't need docs and I updated the tracking sheet. Thanks for the heads up.
