### OpenStack

In this cycle, SIG OpenStack focused on configuration simplification through smarter defaults and the use of auto-detection wherever feasible (Block Storage API versions, Security Groups) as well as updating API support, including:

*   Block Storage (Cinder) V3 is now supported.

- Kubeadm: avoid detection of the container runtime for commands that do not need it ([#97625](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97625), [@pacoxu](https://github.com/pacoxu)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

- Kubeadm: fix a bug where the static pod changes detection logic is inconsistent with kubelet ([#118069](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118069), [@SataQiu](https://github.com/SataQiu)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

### SIG-autoscaling

SIG Autoscaling focused on improving the Horizontal Pod Autoscaling API and algorithm:
- We released autoscaling/v2beta2, which cleans up and unifies the API
- We improved readiness detection and smoothing to work well in a larger variety or use cases

### SIG-Azure

Sig Azure was focused on two primary new alpha features:
- Adding Azure Availability Zones support to cloud provider.

- Kubeadm: avoid detection of the container runtime for commands that do not need it ([#97849](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97849), [@pacoxu](https://github.com/pacoxu)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]
