1. What work did the SIG do this year that should be highlighted?

7+
- We started preparation for the Dockershim removal in 1.24. Minikube and kubeadm
8+
maintainers helped with documentation updates, implementing changes and talking
9+
to the cri-dockerd maintainers.
10+
- Cluster API continues on its road to maturity and released its first MAJOR release
11+
(v1.0) of the GitHub repository. The API itself graduated to v1beta1.
12+
- kubeadm continues with some of the efforts to solve technical debt issues
13+
and further stabilize the project. A new API version v1beta3 was released.
14+
- Support for pure IPv6 was added to kOps. The contributions to this area of kOps
15+
resulted in collaboration with the wider ecosystem.

- For more highlights check the "Current initiatives" section of our

[yearly subproject survey](https://forms.gle/xZn8DXww4XxPsXvCA).

22+
- SIG Cluster Lifecyle has not added any new KEPs that affect the whole group or the wider Kubernetes.
23+
New KEPs and KEP updates were only done for [kubeadm](https://git.k8s.io/enhancements/keps/sig-cluster-lifecycle/kubeadm),
24+
which is the only subproject that is part of the Kubernetes release artifacts.
25+
Most of the activity in this group happens outside of the KEP process.
26+
Individual projects have implemented their own proposal tracking means, such
27+
as the [Cluster API CAEP process](https://sigs.k8s.io/cluster-api/docs/proposals).
28+
- A general theme across subprojects is driving them to maturity.
29+
With the exception of projects like kubeadm, minikube, kOps and kubespray most of
30+
our other subprojects are fairly new in Kubernetes years.

In our survey results we found a few common areas where more help is needed across subprojects:
62+
- Code review
63+
- CI / e2e test monitoring and integration
64+
- Roadmap planning
65+
- Docs authoring and review
66+
67+
All subprojects would appreciate more contributors, but here are a few highlights:
68+
- [etcdadm](https://github.com/kubernetes-etcdadm)

- [cluster-addons](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-addons)

- [cluster-api-provider-gcp](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api-provider-gcp)

75+
- We started collecting metrics from all of our subprojects using an
76+
[yearly survey](https://forms.gle/xZn8DXww4XxPsXvCA). It contains a number of questions
77+
related to project health, OWNERS files, contributor onboarding, etc. What we saw for this annual
78+
report is that our OWNERS files and SIG README.md are mostly up-to-date and that subprojects are doing
79+
what they can to onboard new contributors. We are considering preparing some actions to better educate
80+
our subprojects about onboarding contributors and graduating more OWNERS.

3. Does your [CONTRIBUTING.md] help **new** contributors engage with your group specifically by pointing
5383
to activities or programs that provide useful context or allow easy participation?
5484

55-
-
85+
- As per the survey, we are seeing a good number of projects to keep their contributing
86+
documentation up-to-date. We are drafting action items for the leads to improve the understanding
87+
around [CONTRIBUTING.md] management. We have a good number of projects that have participated in LFX and GSoC.

4. If your group has special training, requirements for reviewers/approvers, or processes beyond the general [contributor guide],
5890
does your [CONTRIBUTING.md] document those to help **existing** contributors grow throughout the [contributor ladder]?
5991

60-
-
92+
- Our subprojects have implemented their own contributing process and they have their own criteria
93+
for contributors to climb the ladders. We have not seen complains from new or existing
94+
contributors related to contributor guides. The SIG leads are open to help subproject leads with tips
95+
on this topic.

- Code review
106+
- CI / e2e test monitoring and integration
107+
- Roadmap planning
108+
- Docs authoring and review
109+
110+
These areas seems suitable for both full time and part time contributors.
111+
Replying to user questions on Slack and other communication channels is something
112+
that can be considered as full time support.
113+
Users/companies can reach out to the subproject leads if certain details
114+
are missing in the [CONTRIBUTING.md] file of a subproject.
