### OpenStack

SIG-OpenStack updated the OpenStack provider to use newer APIs, consolidated community code into one repository, engaged with the Cloud Provider Working Group to have a consistent plan for moving provider code into individual repositories, improved testing of provider code, and strengthened ties with the OpenStack developer community.

### API-machinery

Kubernetes 1.8 adds the apps/v1beta2 group and version, which now consists of the
DaemonSet, Deployment, ReplicaSet and StatefulSet kinds. This group and version are part
