* vSphere cloud provider: Remove the dependency of login information on worker nodes for vsphere cloud provider. ([#43545](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/43545), [@luomiao](https://github.com/luomiao))

* Deprecate auto detecting cloud providers in kubelet. Auto detecting cloud providers go against the initiative for out-of-tree cloud providers as we'll now depend on cAdvisor integrations with cloud providers instead of the core repo. In the near future, `--cloud-provider` for kubelet will either be an empty string or `external`.  ([#51312](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51312),...

#### Cloud Provider Support
* [alpha] Improved support for out-of-tree and out-of-process cloud providers, a.k.a pluggable cloud providers. See [Build and Run cloud-controller-manager](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/running-cloud-controller) documentation.


### **Cluster Federation**
#### Placement Policy

 * `CLEARTEXT` is an insecure configuration that is used for `http://` URLs.

These loosely follow the model set in [Google Cloud Policies](https://cloud.google.com/load-balancing/docs/ssl-policies-concepts). We [track changes](../security/tls_configuration_history.md) to this policy.

## Changelog since v1.3.0-beta.2

### Action Required

* [kubelet] Allow opting out of automatic cloud provider detection in kubelet. By default kubelet will auto-detect cloud providers ([#28258](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/28258), [@vishh](https://github.com/vishh))
