- The `wait.Poll*` and `wait.ExponentialBackoff*` functions have been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.  Callers should switch to using `wait.PollUntilContextCancel`, `wait.PollUntilContextTimeout`,...

- The e2e suite can be instructed not to wait for pods in kube-system to be ready or for all nodes to be ready by passing `--allowed-not-ready-nodes=-1` when invoking the e2e.test program. This allows callers to run subsets of the e2e suite in scenarios other than perfectly healthy clusters.

(if the server supports it) will be of type `meta.k8s.io/v1alpha1` with `Table`, and contain column and row information related to the resource.  Each row will contain information about the resource - by default it will be the object metadata, but callers can add the `?includeObject=Object` query parameter and receive the full object.  In the future kubectl will use this to retrieve the results of `kubectl get`. ([#40848](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/40848), [@smarterclayton](http...

- When using `kubectl replace` (or the equivalent API call) on a Service, the caller no longer needs to do a read-modify-write cycle to fetch the allocated values for `.spec.clusterIP` and `.spec.ports[].nodePort`.  Instead the API server will automatically carry these forward from the original object when the new object does not...

- Informer/reflector callers can now catch and unwrap specific API errors by type. ([#110076](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/110076), [@karlkfi](https://github.com/karlkfi))

### Contextual Logging in Alpha

Kubernetes 1.24 has introduced [contextual logging](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/3077)
that enables the caller of a function to control all aspects of logging (output formatting, verbosity, additional values and names).

### Avoiding Collisions in IP allocation to Services

- Bump runc to v1.1.4. ([#113719](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113719), [@pacoxu](https://github.com/pacoxu))
- Callers using `DelegatingAuthenticationOptions` can now use `DisableAnonymous` to disable Anonymous authentication. ([#112181](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112181), [@xueqzhan](https://github.com/xueqzhan))
