@@ -346,7 +346,107 @@ Since the apiserver can convert between all of the versions by which a resource
 is made available, this situation can be improved by having the apiserver 
 convert resources to the group/versions a webhook registered for.
 
-The API representation and behavior for this feature is still under design and will be updated/approved here prior to implementation.
+A `conversionPolicy` field will be added to the webhook configuration object,
+allowing a webhook to choose whether the apiserver should ignore these requests
+or convert them to a kind corresponding to a resource the webhook registered for
+and send them to the webhook. For safety, this field defaults to Convert.
+
+```golang
+// Webhook describes an admission webhook and the resources and operations it applies to.
+type Webhook struct {
+     ...
+     // ConversionPolicy describes whether the webhook wants to be called when a request is made 
+     // to a resource that does not match "rules", but which modifies the same data 
+     // as a resource that does match "rules".
+     // Allowed values are Ignore or Convert. 
+     // "Ignore" means the request should be ignored.
+     // "Convert" means the request should be converted to a kind corresponding to a resource matched by "rules", and sent to the webhook.
+     // Defaults to Convert.
+     // +optional
+     ConversionPolicy *ConversionPolicyType `json:"conversionPolicy,omitempty"`
+```
+
+The apiserver will do the following:
+
+1. For each resource, compute the set of other resources that access or affect the same data, and the kind of the expected object. For example:
+  * `apps,v1,deployments` (`apiVersion: apps/v1, kind: Deployment`) is also available via:
+    * `apps,v1beta2,deployments` (`apiVersion: apps/v1beta2, kind: Deployment`)
+    * `apps,v1beta1,deployments` (`apiVersion: apps/v1beta1, kind: Deployment`)
+    * `extensions,v1beta1,deployments` (`apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1, kind: Deployment`)
+  * `apps,v1,deployments/scale` (`apiVersion: autoscaling/v1, kind: Scale`) is also available via:
+    * `apps,v1beta2,deployments/scale` (`apiVersion: apps/v1beta2, kind: Scale`)
+    * `apps,v1beta1,deployments/scale` (`apiVersion: apps/v1beta1, kind: Scale`)
+    * `extensions,v1beta1,deployments/scale` (`apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1, kind: Scale`)
+2. When evaluating whether to dispatch an incoming request to a webhook with 
+`conversionPolicy: Convert`, check the request's resource *and* all equivalent 
+resources against the ones the webhook had registered for. If needed, convert 
+the incoming object to one the webhook indicated it understood.
+
+The `AdmissionRequest` sent to a webhook includes the fully-qualified
+kind (group/version/kind) and resource (group/version/resource):
+
+```golang
+type AdmissionRequest struct {
+     ...
+	// Kind is the type of object being manipulated.  For example: Pod
+	Kind metav1.GroupVersionKind `json:"kind" protobuf:"bytes,2,opt,name=kind"`
+	// Resource is the name of the resource being requested.  This is not the kind.  For example: pods
+	Resource metav1.GroupVersionResource `json:"resource" protobuf:"bytes,3,opt,name=resource"`
+	// SubResource is the name of the subresource being requested.  This is a different resource, scoped to the parent
+	// resource, but it may have a different kind. For instance, /pods has the resource "pods" and the kind "Pod", while
+	// /pods/foo/status has the resource "pods", the sub resource "status", and the kind "Pod" (because status operates on
+	// pods). The binding resource for a pod though may be /pods/foo/binding, which has resource "pods", subresource
+	// "binding", and kind "Binding".
+	// +optional
+	SubResource string `json:"subResource,omitempty" protobuf:"bytes,4,opt,name=subResource"`
+```
+
+Prior to this conversion feature, the resource and kind of the request made to the 
+API server, and the resource and kind sent in the AdmissionRequest were identical.
+
+When a conversion occurs and the object we send to the webhook is a different kind
+than was sent to the API server, or the resource the webhook registered for is different
+than the request made to the API server, we have three options for communicating that to the webhook:
+1. Do not expose that fact to the webhook:
+  * Set AdmissionRequest `kind` to the converted kind
+  * Set AdmissionRequest `resource` to the registered-for resource
+2. Expose that fact to the webhook using the existing fields:
+  * Set AdmissionRequest `kind` to the API request's kind (not matching the object in the AdmissionRequest)
+  * Set AdmissionRequest `resource` to the API request's resource (not matching the registered-for resource)
+3. Expose that fact to the webhook using new AdmissionRequest fields:
+  * Set AdmissionRequest `kind` to the converted kind
+  * Set AdmissionRequest `requestKind` to the API request's kind
+  * Set AdmissionRequest `resource` to the registered-for resource
+  * Set AdmissionRequest `requestResource` to the API request's resource
+
+Option 1 loses information the webhook could use (for example, to enforce different validation or defaulting rules for newer APIs).
+
+Option 2 risks breaking webhook logic by sending it resources it did not register for, and kinds it did not expect.
+
+Option 3 is preferred, and is the safest option that preserves information for use by the webhook.
+
+To support this, three fields will be added to AdmissionRequest, and populated with the original request's kind, resource, and subResource:
+
+```golang
+type AdmissionRequest struct {
+     ...
+	// RequestKind is the type of object being manipulated in the original API request.  For example: Pod
+     // If this differs from the value in "kind", conversion was performed.
+     // +optional
+	RequestKind *metav1.GroupVersionKind `json:"requestKind,omitempty"`
+	// RequestResource is the name of the resource being requested in the original API request.  This is not the kind.  For example: ""/v1/pods
+     // If this differs from the value in "resource", conversion was performed.
+     // +optional
+	RequestResource *metav1.GroupVersionResource `json:"requestResource,omitempty"`
+	// RequestSubResource is the name of the subresource being requested in the original API request.  This is a different resource, scoped to the parent
+	// resource, but it may have a different kind. For instance, /pods has the resource "pods" and the kind "Pod", while
+	// /pods/foo/status has the resource "pods", the sub resource "status", and the kind "Pod" (because status operates on
+	// pods). The binding resource for a pod though may be /pods/foo/binding, which has resource "pods", subresource
+     // "binding", and kind "Binding".
+     // If this differs from the value in "subResource", conversion was performed.
+	// +optional
+	RequestSubResource string `json:"requestSubResource,omitempty"`
+```
