- The kubelet, when using `--cloud-provider=external` can use the `--node-ip` flag with one of the unspecified addresses 0.0.0.0 or ::, to create the Node with the IP of the default gateway of the corresponding IP family and then delegating the responsibility to the external cloud provider. This solves the bootstrap problems of out of tree cloud providers that are...

- Fixed a bug where Job status updates fail after resuming a Job that was previously started and suspended.

this way the first offset will use an axis and the second one\n  // will use the other one\n  const useHeight = ['right', 'left'].indexOf(basePlacement) !== -1;\n\n  // Split the offset string to obtain a list of values and operands\n  // The regex addresses values with the plus or minus sign in front (+10, -20, etc)\n  const fragments = offset.split(/(\\+|\\-)/).map(frag => frag.trim());\n\n  // Detect if the offset string contains a pair of values or a single one\n  // they could be separated by comma...

* The apiserver now uses addresses reported by the kubelet in the Node object's status for apiserver->kubelet communications, rather than the name of the Node object. The address type used defaults to `InternalIP`, `ExternalIP`, and `LegacyHostIP` address types, in that order. ([...
