+# SIG Cluster Lifecycle Annual Report 2020
+
+## Operational
+
+* How are you doing with operational tasks in
+[sig-governance.md](https://git.k8s.io/community/committee-steering/governance/sig-governance.md)?
+  * Is your README accurate? have a CONTRIBUTING.md file?
+    * Yes, [README.md](https://git.k8s.io/community/sig-cluster-lifecycle/README.md) is accurate
+    * We have a [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://git.k8s.io/community/sig-cluster-lifecycle/CONTRIBUTING.md)
+  * All subprojects correctly mapped and listed in [sigs.yaml](https://git.k8s.io/community/sig-list.md)?
+    * [Yes](https://git.k8s.io/community/sig-cluster-lifecycle/README.md#subprojects)
+  * What’s your meeting culture? Large/small, active/quiet, learnings? Meeting notes up to date? Are you keeping
+  recordings up to date/trends in community members watching recordings?
+    * The main SIG meeting has ~10 people on average. Some projects like kubeadm have low attendance,
+    while others like Cluster API have high attendance. Meeting notes usually are a best effort.
+    [We record all SIG meetings](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL69nYSiGNLP29D0nYgAGWt1ZFqS9Z7lw4).
+* How does the group get updates, reports, or feedback from subprojects? Are there any springing up or being
+retired? Are OWNERS.md files up to date in these areas?
+  * [We do regular subproject updates](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Gmc7LyCIL_148a9Tft7pdhdee0NBHdOfHS1SAF0duI4/edit)
+  as part of the main SIG call.
+  * We recently retired [https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-deploy](https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-deploy) and
+  [https://github.com/kubernetes-retired/kube-aws](https://github.com/kubernetes-retired/kube-aws).
+  * Keeping OWNERS files up-to-date falls under maintenance of subproject leads. We hope that they keep
+  them up-to-date as they know their community better. We update OWNER files and send occasional reminders for that:
+    * [Recent mailing list notification](https://groups.google.com/g/kubernetes-sig-cluster-lifecycle/c/KH8g4WRjOAE)
+    * [https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98547](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98547)
+    * [https://github.com/kubernetes/kubeadm/pull/2390](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubeadm/pull/2390)
+* Same question as above but for working groups.
+  * The [WG Component Standard ](https://git.k8s.io/community/wg-component-standard) which we co-own with
+  SIG API Machinery [is looking for new leads](https://groups.google.com/g/kubernetes-wg-component-standard/c/sNAqDptjJug/m/P87KtaZuAgAJ).
+  On private we proposed that we should ideally find new leads instead of disbanding the WG,
+  but if no leads volunteer we are going to have to do that. The WG is not very active, due to the current
+  leads being busy with other work.
+  * We do not own other WGs.
+* When was your last monthly community-wide update? (provide link to deck and/or recording)
+  * Last presentation was on July 16, 2020:
+    * [Slides](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ZEDeF6lqxP-LmxCRa2EBmDS1sZFAv3RmrdQOUyd6IAc/edit?usp=sharing)

+
+## Membership
+
+* Are all listed SIG leaders (chairs, tech leads, and subproject owners) active?
+  * For the SIG leads yes.
+  * For subproject owners, likely there are some inactive maintainers, but it’s up to the subproject to prune their OWNERs files.
+* How do you measure membership? By mailing list members, OWNERs, or something else?
+  * Anyone can be considered a SIG member if they join the Zoom calls or general discussions regularly.
+  * In terms of repository scope - an active contributor with PRs / Issues / Reviews becomes eligible to be part of an OWNERS file.
+* How does the group measure reviewer and approver bandwidth? Do you need help in any area now? What are you doing about it?
+  * For sub-projects, it’s up to the active subproject maintainers to allocate review resources.
+  * Some projects like etcdadm, cluster-addons and kubeadm are currently looking for more contributors.
+  * We use the common methods of
+  [“help-wanted” labels](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22help+wanted%22)
+  and announcing the request for help on slack / mailing list.
+  * For the main SIG (e.g. when reviewing KEPs) the lead who has the time usually reviews, but we try to notify everyone
+  so that they can comment if they have the time too.
+* Is there a healthy onboarding and growth path for contributors in your SIG?
+What are some activities that the group does to encourage this? What programs are you participating in to grow contributors
+throughout the contributor ladder?
+  * One of our methods is to just record onboarding videos / hold Zoom sessions discussing a certain problem / area:
+    * [kubeadm instructional videos](https://git.k8s.io/kubeadm/CONTRIBUTING.md#instructional-videos)
+    * [Cluster API e2e walkthrough](https://groups.google.com/g/kubernetes-sig-cluster-lifecycle/c/gBbbXrUThT4/m/uS3-Z2mfDAAJ)
+  * New contributors interested in such an areas should join these calls and ask questions.
+  * Most of our meetings have a dedicated slot for welcoming newcomers.
+* What programs do you participate in for new contributors?
+  * [We participated in Google Summer of code 2020](https://kubernetes.io/blog/2020/09/16/gsoc20-building-operators-for-cluster-addons/)
+  with the Cluster Addons project.
+* Does the group have contributors from multiple companies/affiliations? Can end users/companies contribute in some way that
+they currently are not?
+  * We have contributors from a number of different companies interested in Kubernetes:
+    * [Cluster API stats](https://k8s.devstats.cncf.io/d/8/company-statistics-by-repository-group?orgId=1&var-period=d7&var-metric=contributions&var-repogroup_name=SIG%20Cluster%20Lifecycle%20(Cluster%20API)&var-companies=All)
+    * [Overall Cluster Lifecycle stats](https://k8s.devstats.cncf.io/d/8/company-statistics-by-repository-group?orgId=1&var-period=d7&var-metric=contributions&var-repogroup_name=SIG%20Cluster%20Lifecycle&var-companies=All)
+  * Everyone can contribute as long as they have the motivation and their ideas are good.
+
+## Current initiatives and project health
+
+* [x] Please include links to KEPs and other supporting information that will be beneficial to multiple types of community members.
+* What are initiatives that should be highlighted, lauded, shout out, that your group is proud of? Currently underway?
+What are some of the longer tail projects that your group is working on?
+  * We did a KEP to standardize how clusters define insecure local container registries:
+    * [1755-communicating-a-local-registry](https://git.k8s.io/enhancements/keps/sig-cluster-lifecycle/generic/1755-communicating-a-local-registry)
+  * Cluster API has its own spin of the KEP process and has a number of interesting active proposals:
+    * [Cluster API proposals](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/tree/master/docs/proposals)
+  * Most of our subprojects have existed for a long time - including, kubeadm, kops, minikube, etc.
+* Year to date KEP work review: What’s now stable? Beta? Alpha? Road to alpha?
+  * Only kubeadm features go through the Alpha->GA stages of the Kubernetes release process:
+    * [keps/sig-cluster-lifecycle](https://https://git.k8s.io/enhancements/keps/sig-cluster-lifecycle)
+  * Projects like kops, minikube, kubeadm, kubespray are mostly stable.
+  * Projects like Cluster API and etcdadm are alpha and moving towards graduation following a process similar to Kubernetes.
+* What areas and/or subprojects does the group need the most help with?
+  * Here are a few picks from more to less:
+    * [Etcdadm](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/etcdadm)
+    * [Cluster-addons](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-addons)
+    * [Kubeadm](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubeadm)
+* What's the average open days of a PR and Issue in your group? / what metrics does your group care about and/or measure?
+  * Our SIG is quite big and it depends on the subprojects.
+  * It’s up to the subproject to monitor the metrics they care about.
+  * For the SIG as a whole we track what tickets we have here:
+    * [kubernetes/enhancements](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/labels/sig%2Fcluster-lifecycle)
+    * [kubernetes/kubernetes](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/labels/sig%2Fcluster-lifecycle)
