[Kubeflow 1.10] Distributions and Kubeflow

[rimolive]

This issue will be used to track the progress of and coordinate with distributions along the 1.10 release.

While we hope all distros will manage to be ready when the KF 1.10 release is out, this is sometimes difficult to achieve. In this issue, we want to both keep track of the progress of distributions towards the KF 1.10 release and also know which of the distros will be working on KF 1.10 (testing during the distribution testing cycle) even if they can't meet the KF 1.10 deadline.

Tagging distribution owners identified from previous releases (Any new or missed distro owners, please comment on this issue)

1. deployKF plans to release a GA version that includes the 1.10 versions within a reasonable timeframe of the manifest release.

   • There may also be a deployKF RC version released before the final 1.10.0 is cut, depending on how stable everything is.

2. As usual, I will also give feedback on the manifests RCs.

3. See above
