* You can find out what taints you have in place on a node while you are still running Kubernetes 1.5 by doing `kubectl describe node <node name>`; the `Taints` section will show the taints you have in place. To see the taints that were created under 1.5 when you are running 1.6, do `kubectl get node <node name> -o yaml` and look for the "Annotation" section with the annotation...

  - Please adapt your tooling built on top of kubeadm to use the "node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane" label.
  - The taint applied to control-plane nodes "node-role.kubernetes.io/master:NoSchedule" is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release after a GA deprecation period.

* Make all e2e tests lookup image to use from a centralized place. In that centralized place, add support for multiple platforms. ([#49457](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49457), [@mkumatag](https://github.com/mkumatag))

* New alpha feature to limit the number of processes running in a pod. Cluster administrators will be able to place limits by using the new kubelet command line parameter --pod-max-pids. Note that...

- kubeadm: Promoted the feature gate `ControlPlaneKubeletLocalMode` to Beta. By default, kubeadm will use the local kube-apiserver endpoint for the kubelet when creating a cluster with `kubeadm init` or when joining control plane nodes with `kubeadm join`. Enabling the feature gate also affects the...

Kubeadm: Automate certificate copy between control planes in HA setups

- Joining control plane nodes to a HA cluster can now be simplified by enabling the optional automatic copy of certificates from an existing control plane node.
- You can now use `kubeadm init --experimental-upload-certs` and `kubeadm join --experimental-control-plane --certificate-key`.
