- Added `apiextensions_apiserver_update_ratcheting_time` metric for tracking time taken during requests by feature `CRDValidationRatcheting`. ([#121462](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121462), [@alexzielenski](https://github.com/alexzielenski))

- Removed tracking annotation from validation and defaulting. ([#117633](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117633), [@kannon92](https://github.com/kannon92))

                  in this policy should go through the data plane's connection tracking,
                  such as Linux conntrack.  If True, the rules in this policy are
                  applied before any data plane connection tracking, and packets allowed
                  by this policy are marked as not to be tracked.

with lower latency than before (2s vs 4s, on average) and rapid updates to pod configuration should take effect sooner.
  
  A new metric `kubelet_known_pods` has been added at ALPHA stability to report the number of pods a Kubelet is tracking in a number of internal states.  Operators may use the metrics to track an excess of pods in the orphaned state that may not be completing.
