- The example API server has renamed its `wardle.k8s.io` API group to `wardle.example.com` ([#81670](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/81670), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
- CRDs defaulting is promoted to GA. Note: the feature gate CustomResourceDefaulting will be removed in 1.18. ([#84713](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84713), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))

`http://localhost:8080`. If you own one of these legacy clusters, you are *strongly* encouraged to secure your server. If you cannot secure your server, you can set the `$KUBERNETES_MASTER` environment variable to `http://localhost:8080` to continue defaulting the server address. `kubectl` users can also set the server address using the `--server` flag, or in a kubeconfig file specified via `--kubeconfig` or `$KUBECONFIG`.

* Resolves spurious rollouts of workload controllers when upgrading the API server, due to incorrect defaulting of an alpha procMount field in pods ([#78883](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78883), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* AWS: Handle kube-down case where the LaunchConfig is dangling ([#30816](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/30816), [@zmerlynn](https://github.com/zmerlynn))
* kubectl will no longer do client-side defaulting on create and replace. ([#30250](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/30250), [@krousey](https://github.com/krousey))

- Removed tracking annotation from validation and defaulting. ([#117633](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117633), [@kannon92](https://github.com/kannon92))

## Changelog since v1.10.5

### Action Required

- Graduated seccomp profile defaulting to GA.
  
  Set the kubelet `--seccomp-default` flag or `seccompDefault` kubelet configuration field to `true` to make pods on that node default to using the `RuntimeDefault` seccomp profile.
  

### SIG API Machinery

[SIG API Machinery][] is responsible for all aspects of the API server: API registration and discovery, generic API CRUD semantics, admission control, encoding/decoding, conversion, defaulting, persistence layer (etcd), OpenAPI, third-party resources, garbage collection, and client libraries.

  fields: ipFamilyPolicy (SingleStack, PreferDualStack, RequireDualStack),
  ipFamilies (a list of families assigned), and clusterIPs (inclusive of
  clusterIP).  Most users do not need to set anything at all, defaulting will
  handle it for them.  Services are single-stack unless the user asks for
