#### Volume Plugins

  clusterrolebindings, this command computes covers and adds the missing rules.
  The logic required to properly apply RBAC permissions is more complicated
  than a JSON merge because you have to compute logical covers operations between
  rule sets. This means that we cannot use `kubectl apply` to update RBAC roles
  without risking breaking old clients, such as controllers.

Durable Local Storage Management is Now GA ([#121](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/121#issuecomment-457396290))

- Makes locally attached (non-network attached) storage available as a persistent volume source.
- Allows users to take advantage of the typically cheaper and improved performance of persistent local storage

makes it possible to set requests and limits on ephemeral local storage resources. In addition, you can now create [Local Persistent Storage](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/121), which enables PersistentVolumes to be created with locally attached disks, and not just network volumes.

On the Persistent Volumes side, this release [Prevents deletion of Persistent Volume Claims that are used by a pod](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/498) and [Persistent Volumes...
