### Other notable changes

* Added new flag to `kubeadm init`: --node-name, that lets you specify the name of the Node object that will be created ([#48594](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/48594), [@GheRivero](https://github.com/GheRivero))

- Added a new IPAddress object kind

- Added a new `ipMode` field to the `.status` of Services where `type` is set to `LoadBalancer`.

Extensibility. SIG API Machinery added a new class of admission control webhooks (mutating), and brought the admission control webhooks to beta.

### Apps

The core workloads API, which is composed of the DaemonSet, Deployment, ReplicaSet, and StatefulSet kinds, has been promoted to GA stability in the apps/v1 group version. As such, the apps/v1beta2 group version is deprecated, and all new code should use the kinds in the apps/v1 group version.
