## Urgent Upgrade Notes 

### (No, really, you MUST read this before you upgrade)

- Deprecated beta APIs scheduled for removal in `v1.26` are no longer served. See https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/using-api/deprecation-guide/#v1-26 for more information. ([#111973](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111973), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- Kubeadm: deprecate the "kubeadm alpha kubelet config enable-dynamic" command. To continue using the feature please defer to the guide for "Dynamic Kubelet Configuration" at k8s.io. ([#92881](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/92881), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

## Major themes

Kubernetes is developed by community members whose work is organized into
[Special Interest Groups](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/sig-list.md), which provide the themes that guide their work. For the 1.9 release, these themes included:

### API Machinery

Extensibility. SIG API Machinery added a new class of admission control webhooks (mutating), and brought the admission control webhooks to beta.
