  • docker image renamed to quay.io/kubernetes-multicluster/kubefed
  • The managed label has been renamed from federation.k8s.io/managed to kubefed.k8s.io/managed
  • The finalizer applied to federated resources has been changed from federation.k8s.io/sync-controller to kubefed.k8s.io/sync-controller
  • API group changed from federation.k8s.io to kubefed.k8s.io
  • FederatedCluster renamed to KubeFedCluster
  • FederationConfig renamed to KubeFedConfig

• Core and federated api versions changed from v1alpha1 to v1beta1
