 # Changelog
 
+### 1.6.0
+
+OVERVIEW:
+
+Release 1.6.0 includes: 
+* Improvements to VirtualServer and VirtualServerRoute resources, adding support for richer load balancing behavior, more sophisticated request routing, redirects, direct responses, and blue-green and circuit breaker patterns. The VirtualServer and VirtualServerRoute resources are enabled by default and are ready for production use.
+* Support for OpenTracing, helping you to monitor and debug complex transactions.
+* An improved security posture, with support to run the Ingress Controller as a non-root user.
+
+The release announcement blog post includes the overview for each feature. See https://www.nginx.com/blog/announcing-nginx-ingress-controller-for-kubernetes-release-1-6-0/

Added in [750](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/750), [636](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/636) thanks to [Guilherme Oki](https://github.com/guilhermeoki), [600](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/600), [581](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/581) thanks to [Alex Meijer](https://github.com/ameijer-corsha).
+* [722](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/722): Fix trailing leader election cm when using helm. This change might lead to a failed upgrade. See the helm upgrade instruction below.
+* [573](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/573): Use Controller name value for app selectors.
+
+CHANGES:
+* Update NGINX versions to 1.17.6.
+* Update NGINX Plus version to R20.
+* [799](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/779): Enable CRDs by default. VirtualServer and VirtualServerRoute resources are now enabled by default.
+* [772](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/772): Update VS/VSR version from v1alpha1 to v1. Make sure to update the `apiVersion` of your VirtualServer and VirtualServerRoute resources.
+* [748](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/748): Add TLS redirect support in VirtualServer. The `redirect-to-https` and `ssl-redirect` ConfigMap keys no longer have any effect on generated configs for VirtualServer resources.
+* [745](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/745): Improve routing rules. Update the spec of VirtualServer and VirtualServerRoute accordingly. See YAML examples of the changes [here](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/745).
+* [710](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/710): Run IC as non-root. Make sure to use the updated manifests to install/upgrade the Ingress Controller.
+* [603](https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/pull/603): Update apiVersion in Deployments and DaemonSets to apps/v1.
+
+UPGRADE:
+* For NGINX, use the 1.6.0 image from our DockerHub: `nginx/nginx-ingress:1.6.0` or `nginx/nginx-ingress:1.6.0-alpine`
+* For NGINX Plus, please build your own image using the 1.6.0 source code.
+* For Helm, use version 0.4.0 of the chart.
+
+HELM UPGRADE:
+
+If leader election (the `controller.reportIngressStatus.enableLeaderElection` parameter) is enabled, when upgrading to the new version of the Helm chart:
+1. Make sure to specify a new ConfigMap lock name (`controller.reportIngressStatus.leaderElectionLockName`) different from the one that was created by the current version. To find out the current name, check ConfigMap resources in the namespace where the Ingress Controller is running.
+1. After the upgrade, delete the old ConfigMap.
+
+Otherwise, the helm upgrade will not succeed.
