### **Apps**

*   The `kubernetes.io/created-by` annotation is no longer added to controller-created objects. Use the `metadata.ownerReferences` item with controller set to `true` to determine which controller, if any, owns an object. ([#54445](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/54445),[ @crimsonfaith91](https://github.com/crimsonfaith91))

- FieldManager no longer owns fields that get reset before the object is persisted (e.g. "status wiping"). ([#99661](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99661), [@kevindelgado](https://github.com/kevindelgado)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth and Testing]

  Use [ControllerRef](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/design-proposals/api-machinery/controller-ref.md) instead to determine which controller, if any, owns an object.

 - The `batch/v2alpha1.CronJob` is deprecated in favor of `batch/v1beta1`.

 - The `batch/v2alpha1.ScheduledJob` was removed. Use `batch/v1beta1.CronJob` instead.

### Auth

- Replace scale down forbidden window with scale down stabilization window. Rather than waiting a fixed period of time between scale downs HPA now scales down to the highest recommendation it during the scale down stabilization window. ([#68122](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68122), [@krzysztof-jastrzebski](https://github.com/krzysztof-jastrzebski))

* StatefulSet will now fill the `hostname` and `subdomain` fields if they're empty on existing Pods it owns. This allows it to self-correct the issue where StatefulSet Pod DNS entries disappear after upgrading to v1.7.x ([#48327](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/48327)).

* Update kube-dns to 1.14.5 ([#53114](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53114), [@bowei](https://github.com/bowei))
