### Promoted Server Side Unknown Field Validation to Beta

## Major Themes

Kubernetes is developed by community members whose work is organized into
[Special Interest Groups][]. For the 1.8 release, each SIG provides the
themes that guided their work.

[Special Interest Groups]: https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/sig-list.md

### SIG API Machinery

    *   Best practice for version 1.9 and future versions is to explicitly set a cloud-provider. See [the documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/scratch/#cloud-providers)
*   The kubeadm `--skip-preflight-checks` flag is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

     * threshold has not yet been updated, so there are no atomicity requirements for this with
     * respect to reads.
     *
     * As a guide, all critical volatile reads and writes to the count field are marked in code
     * comments.
