This new release contains the following changes that needs attention:

• A new deep inspector for objects. Now every time an object gets to be reconciled/added, it will pass entirely through a validation (this may leed to some CPU increase)
• The NGINX process now can be chrooted/jailed inside the ingress container, for security reasons. This option is disabled by default, and will be enable in future releases. This new option requires the SYS_CHROOT capability to be added to the Pod
