cluster security policies.

For the 1.8 release, SIG Auth focused on stablizing existing features that were introduced
in previous releases. RBAC was moved from beta to v1, and advanced auditing was moved from alpha
to beta. Encryption of resources stored on disk (resources at rest) remained in alpha, and the SIG began exploring integrations with external key management systems.

- Kubernetes v1.13 moves support for Container Storage Interface to GA. As part of this move Kubernetes now supports CSI v1.0.0 and deprecates support for CSI 0.3 and older releases. Older CSI drivers must be updated to CSI 1.0 and moved to the new kubelet plugin registration directory in order to work with Kubernetes 1.15+. ([#71020](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71020),...

has been working on for a few releases. The goal is to move in-tree volume plugins to out-of-tree CSI drivers and eventually remove the in-tree volume plugins. The [core CSI Migration](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/tree/master/keps/sig-storage/625-csi-migration) feature moved to GA. CSI Migration for GCE PD and AWS EBS also moved to GA. CSI Migration for vSphere remains in beta (but is on by default). CSI Migration for Portworx moved to Beta (but is off-by-default).


###...

  - The disk-cached discovery client is moved from k8s.io/client-go/discovery to k8s.io/client-go/discovery/cached/disk.
The memory-cached discovery client is moved from k8s.io/client-go/discovery/cached to k8s.io/client-go/discovery/cached/memory.

* add goroutine to move unschedulable pods to activeq if they are not retried for more than 1 minute ([#72558](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72558), [@denkensk](https://github.com/denkensk))

- `kube-apiserver` updated:

* Fix init container status reporting when active deadline is exceeded. ([#46305](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46305), [@sjenning](https://github.com/sjenning))

* Moved qos to api.helpers. ([#44906](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/44906), [@k82cn](https://github.com/k82cn))

### **Multicluster**

*   Development of Kubernetes Federation has moved to [github.com/kubernetes/federation](https://github.com/kubernetes/federation). This move out of tree also means that Federation will begin releasing separately from Kubernetes. Impact:
    *   Federation-specific behavior will no longer be included in kubectl

* Default scheduler code is moved out of the plugin directory. ([#57852](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57852), [@misterikkit](https://github.com/misterikkit))

* CDK nginx ingress is now handled via a daemon set. ([#57530](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57530), [@hyperbolic2346](https://github.com/hyperbolic2346))
