 - **dynamic fleet orchestration**: So-called providers interact with multi-cluster solutions like Cluster API and dynamically start and stop reconciliation against clusters discovered through the provider.

+- **universal**: Any kind of multi-cluster solution could theoretically be supported (kind, [cluster-api](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api), [Gardener](https://gardener.cloud/) (tbd), [kcp](https://kcp.io), BYO). Cluster providers make the controller-runtime multi-cluster aware.
 - **seamless**: add multi-cluster support without compromising on single-cluster. Run in either mode without code changes to the reconcilers.

 4. multicluster-runtime is developed as if it was part of controller-runtime (quality standards, naming, style).
 5. multicluster-runtime could be a testbed for native controller-runtime functionality, eventually becoming superfluous.
 6. multicluster-runtime is provider agnostic, but may contain providers with its own go.mod files and dedicated OWNERS files.
+    * These providers should be understood as reference implementations and are generally limited to projects hosted by a Kubernetes SIG.
+    * "Production-ready" providers shall be hosted in their own respective repositories close to the project they support.
