- Kubelet: plugins for dynamic resource allocation may use the `v1alpha3` API instead of v1alpha2 if they want to do prepare/unprepare operations in batches. ([#119012](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119012), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

- Kubeadm: removed the EXPERIMENTAL tag from the phase "kubeadm join control-plane-prepare download-certs". ([#124374](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124374), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))

in kubectl, as well as finishing [kubectl diff which is based on server-side dry-run feature](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/object-management/#how-to-create-objects). We’ve continued separating kubectl code to prepare for extraction out of main repository. Finally, thanks to the awesome support and feedback from community we’ve managed to promote the new [plugin mechanism to Beta](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/extend-kubectl/kubectl-plugins/).
