2023 Annual Report: WG Structured Logging

Current initiatives and Project Health

1. What work did the WG do this year that should be highlighted?

• Graduated contextual logging as Beta.
  • All of kube-controller-manager and some parts of kube-scheduler converted (in-tree).
• klog package updates that support using slog as a backend.
• Enhance the logcheck tool for better detection of contextual logging and use newer APIs in Kubernetes.

2. Are there any areas and/or subprojects that your group needs help with (e.g. fewer than 2 active OWNERS)?

• Our working group is looking for more contributors to help us in the migration of contextual logging. If you are interested or experienced in the area, we would very much welcome your participation.
