* Use "k8s.gcr.io" for container images rather than "gcr.io/google_containers".  This is just a redirect, for now, so should not impact anyone materially.   ([#54174](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/54174), [@thockin](https://github.com/thockin))
    * Documentation and tools should all convert to the new name. Users should take note of this in case they see this new name in the system.

v1beta1 PodDisruptionBudget handling of "strategic merge patch"-type API requests for the `selector` field. Prior to 1.21, these requests would merge `matchLabels` content and replace `matchExpressions` content. In 1.21, patch requests touching the `selector` field started replacing the entire selector. This is consistent with server-side apply and the v1 PodDisruptionBudget behavior, but should not have been changed for v1beta1. ([#108141](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108141), ...

- DRA: the `DeviceRequestAllocationResult` struct now has an "AdminAccess" field which should be used instead of the corresponding field in the `DeviceRequest` field when dealing with an allocation. If a device is only allocated for admin access, allocating it again for normal usage is now supported, as originally intended. To allow admin access, starting with 1.32 the...

  * Modify any custom scheduler(s) you have written so that they read the `schedulerName` field on Pod instead of the `scheduler.alpha.kubernetes.io/name` annotation.
  * Note that you can only start using the `schedulerName` field **after** you upgrade to 1.6; it is not recognized in 1.5.

    * Introduce a RuntimeClass v1beta1 API. This new beta API renames `runtimeHandler` to `handler`, makes it a required field, and cuts out the spec (handler is a top-level field).

- Added support for a new kubectl output format, `kyaml`. KYAML is a strict subset of YAML and should be accepted by any YAML processor. The formatting of KYAML is halfway between JSON and YAML.  Because it is more explicit than the default YAML style, it should be less error-prone.

  - Added `allocatedResources` field to container status in pod status that describes the node resources allocated to a pod.
  - Added `resources` field to container status that reports actual resources applied to running containers.
  - Added `resize` field to pod status that describes the state of a requested pod resize.

- EndpointSlices: If upgrading a cluster with EndpointSlices already enabled, any EndpointSlices that should be managed by the EndpointSlice controller should have a `endpointslice.kubernetes.io/managed-by` label set to `endpointslice-controller.k8s.io`.
