SIG K8s Infra is generally asking subprojects to leverage github releases over e.g. dl.k8s.io to prevent digging the hole deeper on acquiring CDN bandwidth etc. (we have a sufficient allocation from fastly for that use case + some room for growth built in) The packages currently use AWS credits which could be a problem.

For the container images, we are in a unique position that the usage patterns are different and we've flattened the curve by colocating them with the bulk of pulls in the cloud so the situation is a bit different. (that, and we can safely shard content-addressed traffic across multiple backends without the same security concerns as curl-ed files)

That's not strictly incompatible with making the tooling more re-usable, but IMHO something to keep in mind ... wherever possible we're asking subprojects consider if they need to put us on the hook for serving users.

I guess that's totally fine. Everything under "Other Priorities" would need a rework before we can start working on those items. We renamed that category from "Stale" to maintain a more optimistic viewpoint.


For general infrastructure support we rely on.
Outcome: Clear documentation about available version markers as well as their
simplified automation.

Just curious: Is there existing discussion about simplifying?

For documentation, I think we actually have that now? Though it could be more visible,

Yes, simplifying was one of the main goals here. Unfortunately has not been a priority for a long time. Do you think that SIG K8S Infra could/would work on this in the foreseeable future?

I think its worth calling out exactly where you need documentation updated, since new contributors could be willing to sign up to help with that as a mechanism for learning about the roles and responsibilities of the different subprojects (e.g. Release Managers, Release Team, etc).

@kubernetes/release-managers @xmudrii do you have further thoughts on that?
