release-1.1 milestone

[CecileRobertMichon]

What should we work on for the next month? Now that v1beta1 / v1.0.0 is behind us (almost), let's start thinking about what we should tackle next. We will pick the top 3-5 ideas at the next community office hours to focus on in the release-1.1 milestone, with the aim to release on December 15th. Please share links to issues below and upvote the others that you would like to see in the next release!

Note: let's keep this discussion thread limited to issue links only, and discuss each issue individually in the issue's comment thread if needed.

Add AzureClusterTemplate type so we can support ClusterClass: #1500

[CecileRobertMichon]

Enable async reconciliation across more/all services: #1702

[shysank]

Migrate templates to use ClusterClass: #1826. (Optimistic)

[mboersma]

This is dependent on CAPI finalizing ClusterClass support.

[shysank]

Consistent logging #1806

[devigned]

Complete remaining work to add features and move AzureManagedClusters out exp.

Here are some things I'd like to see:

• refactoring to using the reconciler / spec structure other reconcilers use so we can clean up some of the service / reconciler code
• add conditions and provide better status during reconcile loops
• have better initial status, like we have started to reconcile, but are not quite ready yet. I think this is coincides with making the reconcilers async
• make the reconcilers async to provide better feedback to users
• tinker with the watches and reconcilers to ensure we are squeezing as quick of reconciliation as possible
