- **API Machinery**
  - [beta] `kube-apiserver` support for the OpenAPI spec is moving from alpha to beta. The first [non-go client](https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/client-python) is based on it ([kubernetes/features#53](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/53))
- **Apps**

### Action Required

* ACTION REQUIRED: In-place node upgrades to this release from versions 1.7.14, 1.8.9, and 1.9.4 are not supported if using subpath volumes with PVCs.  Such pods should be drained from the node first. ([#61373](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61373), [@msau42](https://github.com/msau42))

### Other notable changes

- Fixed a regression error when proxying responses from aggregated API servers, which could cause watch requests to hang until the first event was received. ([#75887](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75887), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* Fix initial exec terminal dimensions. ([#51126](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51126), [@chen-anders](https://github.com/chen-anders))
* vSphere: Fix attach volume failing on the first try. ([#51218](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51218), [@BaluDontu](https://github.com/BaluDontu))
