Ian, Thanks for your interest. It's great to have you around. It takes a vote to become a triage maintainer. I'll get that process started for you. - Matt Farina

Kubernetes has delayed the release of 1.24. Helm minor releases follow the minor releases of Kubernetes so that we can incorporate updates. Due to the delay in Kubernetes, which is currently scheduled

Allen, Thanks for your patience as we worked through the vote. It can sometimes be a slow process. I want to welcome you as our newest triage maintainer. You now have the votes. Regards, Matt Farina

Thanks for providing clarification with… I think there are a couple problems here, though. People are taking the levels as Helm stand alone vs operators in general. This has come up in numerous conver

I’d like to add to what Paul said. Helm and operators are two different types of things. They don’t solve the same problem. Think of it this way, would I ask apt or yum to implement ansible features?

The next step in the process is that Martin needs to accept. He can do that here on the list.

Vic, Thanks for all your time and hard work on Helm. We couldn't have pulled off all that charts CI without you. I wish you the best in the projects your working on and the family time. - Matt Farina

Helm v3.4.0 and v2.17.0 were both released. Along with that the details on the new location for the stable and incubator chart repositories are available. Details are in the blog post at https://helm.

The Helm project has decided to deprecate the Helm Hub and redirect people to the Artifact Hub. We have been tracking this work for some time. We are now at the point where the redirect will go into p

I wanted to share that we have made a small governance change to Helm. There was a section in the governance that pertained to the initial election of org maintainers. That event happened a couple yea

Teja, This is a good question. There are a couple things that come to mind for uses of Helm tests. Helm tests enable a chart author to package tests in a chart and ship them to a chart consumer. The c

This has been shared previously but we've come to realize that not everyone has noticed. On November 13th of this year the stable and incubator chart repos will be marked obsolete and will be going aw

The Helm Hub has made it far easier to find charts that are distributed around the Internet. General purpose search engines don't make it easy and the Helm Hub, being Kubernetes and charts specific, p

Berin, I am not entirely sure of your workflow so these are just ideas and thoughts in the area. First, appVersion is optional. You do not need to use it if you don't want to. Second, if you are using

Berin, Thanks for such an extensive write-up. I can't address all of it now but I wanted to talk about transitive dependencies. I am curious what you are looking for in respect to that as far as handl

Thanks for suggesting the Kubernetes process. I'll take a look at it. I just took Gitlocalize for a spin. I had a couple problems with it (i.e., hugo front matter handling and DCO). Won't work for us.

I'm kinda interested in the human based tools more than automating translations. From what I've been told, the automation quality is so-so. But, we have people interested in translating docs. But, our

The Helm website and docs are setup for localization / i18n. The flow of contributing translations is the same as contributing docs and code. This has left me wondering... should Helm use some outside
