But we also need a set of stationary conformance standards for people to test against. If a particular person or organization wants to release something and claim it to be fully conformant with Kubernetes version x.y.z, we need a clear immovable definition of what the latter means.  We now define that to be the conformance tests in the x.y.z release branch.\r\n\r\nMake sense?\r\n\r\n"}}
