Intro: SIG Cluster Lifecycle
summary
SIG Cluster Lifecycle prioritizes deploys, upgrades and reproducible cluster management and ships concrete tools: kubeadm as a single-purpose installer used to bootstrap and join nodes, automated certificate renewal during upgrades, new end-to-end install/upgrade tests, and ongoing HA improvements in recent 1.15 work. A declarative Cluster API models machines/machineSets like Pods/ReplicaSets so providers implement machine lifecycle, and the SIG coordinates 15+ projects with a 600+ mailing list and thousands of PRs while moving flags into versioned component configs.
