The <i>capacity</i> is a measure of that extent: it is the sum of
the length of the slice and the length of the array beyond the slice;
a slice of length up to that capacity can be created by
<a href="#Slice_expressions"><i>slicing</i></a> a new one from the original slice.
The capacity of a slice <code>a</code> can be discovered using the
built-in function <a href="#Length_and_capacity"><code>cap(a)</code></a>.

- `kubectl get -w` now takes an `--output-watch-events` flag to indicate the event type (ADDED, MODIFIED, DELETED) ([#72416](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72416), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
- Adds Endpoint Slice support for kubectl when discovery API group is enabled. ([#81795](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/81795), [@robscott](https://github.com/robscott))

### Misc

  * 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...

- Endpoint slice controller now mirrors parent's service label to its corresponding endpoint slices. ([#94443](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94443), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

### Bug or Regression

- Fixed a regression since 1.27.0 in scheduler framework when running score plugins. 
  The `skippedScorePlugins` number might be greater than `enabledScorePlugins`, 
  so when initializing a slice the cap(len(skippedScorePlugins) - len(enabledScorePlugins)) is negative, 
  which is not allowed. ([#121666](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121666), [@kerthcet](https://github.com/kerthcet)) [SIG Scheduling]

- Fixed an error processing watch events when running skewed apiservers ([#73482](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73482), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
- jsonpath expressions containing `[start:end:step]` slice are now evaluated correctly ([#73149](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73149), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- Significant kube-proxy performance improvements when using Endpoint Slices at scale. ([#83206](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83206), [@robscott](https://github.com/robscott))

### Node

- Azure: avoid setting cached Sku when updating VMSS and VMSS instances ([#102005](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102005), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer)) [SIG Cloud Provider]
- Fix a bug on the endpoint slices mirroring controller where endpoint NotReadyAddresses were mirrored as Ready to the corresponding EndpointSlice ([#102683](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102683), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG Apps and Network]

- DRA drivers: the resource slice controller sometimes didn't react properly when kubelet or someone else deleted a recently created ResourceSlice. It incorrectly assumed that the ResourceSlice still exists and didn't recreate it. ([#132683](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/132683),...
