Do we need to report active owners? I remember it was requested few releases back, but I don't see this requirement any longer.

I assume this is voluntary now, @nate-double-u?

[nate-double-u]

I'm actually not sure, I haven't heard of this requirement. Where was it written?

[mfilocha]

I think that was a kind of recommendation coming from one of previous Release Docs lead. But I don't think it should be mandatory for every release.

We are the newest localization team and localization is yet to go live on k8s.io(we expect to launch soon as we are almost done with minimum required content)

[nate-double-u]

Hello localization team leads! I don't think any action is required from you, but I wanted to let you know that we are on track for the release on May 3, 2022. The k/website repo will be frozen on May 2, 2022 until the release is finished.

Let me know if I can help with anything! Thanks!
