Hello @richabanker 👋, v1.32 Enhancements team here.

Just checking in as we approach enhancements freeze on 02:00 UTC Friday 11th October 2024 / 19:00 PDT Thursday 10th October 2024.

This enhancement is targeting for stage alpha for v1.32 (correct me, if otherwise)

/stage alpha

Here's where this enhancement currently stands:

• KEP readme using the latest template has been merged into the k/enhancements repo.
• KEP status is marked as implementable for latest-milestone: v1.32.
• KEP readme has up-to-date graduation criteria
• KEP has a production readiness review that has been completed and merged into k/enhancements. (For more information on the PRR process, check here). If your production readiness review is not completed yet, please make sure to fill the production readiness questionnaire in your KEP by the PRR Freeze deadline on Thursday 3rd October 2024 so that the PRR team has enough time to review your KEP.

For this KEP, we would need to update the following:

• Create the KEP readme using the latest template and merge it in the k/enhancements repo.
• Ensure that the KEP has undergone a production readiness review and has been merged into k/enhancements.

The status of this enhancement is marked as at risk for enhancement freeze. Please keep the issue description up-to-date with appropriate stages as well. Thank you!

If you anticipate missing enhancements freeze, you can file an exception request in advance. Thank you!

Hi @richabanker 👋, v1.32 Enhancements team here.

Just a quick friendly reminder as we approach the enhancements freeze later this week, at 02:00 UTC Friday 11th October 2024 / 19:00 PDT Thursday 10th October 2024.

The current status of this enhancement is marked as at risk for enhancement freeze. There are a few requirements mentioned in the comment #4828 (comment) that still need to be completed.

It looks like PR #4831 will address most of these issues. The PR #4831 needs to be merged before the enhancements freeze.

If you anticipate missing enhancements freeze, you can file an exception request in advance. Thank you!

Hello @richabanker 👋, v1.32 Enhancements team here,

Now that PR #4831 has been merged, all the KEP requirements are in place and merged into k/enhancements.

Before the enhancement freeze, it would be appreciated if following nits could be addressed:

• Update issue description to add direct link to KEP README.md.

  • Kubernetes Enhancement Proposal: https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/blob/master/keps/sig-instrumentation/4828-component-flagz/README.md

Aside from the minor nit mentioned above, this enhancement is all good for the upcoming enhancements freeze. 🚀

The status of this enhancement is now marked as tracked for enhancement freeze. Please keep the issue description up-to-date with appropriate stages as well. Thank you!

[richabanker]

@dipesh-rawat sure, I updated the issue description to point to the KEP readme. Thanks!
