### Taints and Tolerations

consistently deployed across those clusters, and dynamically managed
to ensure that autoscaling can occur optimially in all clusters,
within a set of global constraints on the total number of replicas
permitted across all clusters.  If replicas are not
required in some clusters due to low system load or insufficient quota
or capacity in those clusters, additional replicas are made available

- Fixed incorrect handling by kubectl of custom resources whose Kind is "Status". ([#77368](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77368), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- Kube-apiserver: Fixed a possible panic validating a custom resource whose `CustomResourceDefinition` indicates a status subresource exists, but which does not define a `status` property in the `openAPIV3Schema`.

- The pod phase lifecycle guarantees that terminal Pods, those whose states are Unready or Succeeded, can not regress and will have all container stopped. Hence, terminal Pods will never be reachable and should not publish their IP addresses on the Endpoints or EndpointSlices, independently of the Service TolerateUnready...

- Resolves regression generating informers for packages whose names contain `.` characters ([#82410](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82410), [@nikhita](https://github.com/nikhita))

## Major themes

Kubernetes is developed by community members whose work is organized into
[Special Interest Groups](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/sig-list.md), which provide the themes that guide their work. For the 1.9 release, these themes included:
