v2.6.2
be3ae4e

Helm 2.6.2 includes a handful of bug fixes. It is a patch release, and users are strongly encouraged to upgrade.

It is also important to note that this patch release removes a few features from Helm due to licensing issues, most notably #1639 and #2449. These new features relied on libraries licensed under Facebook's BSD+Patents license (also known as a Category-X license). The Facebook BSD+Patents license includes a specification of a PATENTS file that passes along some risk to users of the Helm project. The terms of Facebook BSD+Patents license are not a subset of those found in Apache v2, and therefore cannot be sublicensed as Apache v2 libraries. We are very sorry for breaking our policy on semantic versioning, but in this specific case it is to protect the interests of all users of the Helm project.

Our community is one of the fastest growing Kubernetes projects. We'd love to have you as a part!
