Hello @sanposhiho @alculquicondor 👋, 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).

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, October 3rd, 2024 so that the PRR team has enough time to review your KEP.

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

• KEP has a production readiness review that has been completed and 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.

@alculquicondor
Looks like we just missed the deadline.
I believe we can make an exception request because we only need an approval for PRR, and actually @/wojtek-t already mentioned it's generally OK for alpha. What do you think?

[sanposhiho]

I filed an exception request for it. cc @wojtek-t.

👋 Hi there, William here from v1.32 Comms
We'd love for you to consider writing a feature blog about your enhancement! Some reasons why you might want to write a blog for this feature include (but are not limited to) if this introduces breaking changes, is important to our users, or has been in progress for a long time and is graduating.

To opt-in, let us know and open a Feature Blog placeholder PR against the website repository by 30th Oct 2024. For more information about writing a blog see the blog contribution guidelines.

Note: In your placeholder PR, use XX characters for the blog date in the front matter and file name. We will work with you on updating the PR with the publication date once we have a final number of feature blogs for this release.

[sanposhiho]

I believe we don't need a blog post for this. (at least, within this release)

[wrkode]

Thank's for your prompt feedback @sanposhiho
