### API Change

#### New API types/versions:
- A new IngressClass resource has been added to enable better Ingress configuration. ([#88509](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88509), [@robscott](https://github.com/robscott)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, CLI, Network, Node and Testing]

* Clean up the kube-proxy container image by removing unnecessary packages and files. ([#42090](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/42090), [@timstclair](https://github.com/timstclair))
* Better compat with very old iptables (e.g. CentOS 6) ([#37594](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/37594), [@thockin](https://github.com/thockin))

### Scheduler

  you want to set the equivalent of any of the `--iptables-xxx` options.)
  
  As this code is still very new, it has not been heavily optimized yet;
  while it is expected to _eventually_ have better performance than the
  iptables backend, very little performance testing has been done so far. ([#121046](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121046), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship))

### Other (Cleanup or Flake)

- Service session affinity timeout tests are no longer required for Kubernetes network plugin conformance due to variations in existing implementations. New conformance tests will be developed to better express conformance in future releases.

## Dependencies

### Added

### CLI

This release includes a change to [kubectl get and describe to work better with extensions](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/515), as the server, rather than the client, returns this information for a smoother user experience.

### Network

- New scoring for PodTopologySpreading that yields better spreading ([#90475](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/90475), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor)) [SIG Scheduling]

- All `klog` flags except for `-v` and `-vmodule` are deprecated. Support for `-vmodule` is only guaranteed for the text log format. ([#105042](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105042), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

### SIG Scheduling

### Bug or Regression

- Added jitter factor to lease controller that better smears load on kube-apiserver over time. ([#101652](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/101652), [@marseel](https://github.com/marseel)) [SIG API Machinery and Scalability]

of the code.  There are many ways you could offer source, and different
solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
specific requirements.
