-// //TODO add notes about big changes introduced by this release
+// A list of changes since v1alpha3:
+// - "apiServerEndpoint" in InitConfiguration was renamed to "localAPIServerEndpoint" for better clarity of what the field
+// represents.
+// - Common fields in ClusterConfiguration such as "*extraArgs" and "*extraVolumes" for control plane components are now moved
+// under component structs - i.e. "apiServer", "controllerManager", "scheduler".
+// - "auditPolicy" was removed from ClusterConfiguration. Please use "extraArgs" in "apiServer" to configure this feature instead.
+// - "unifiedControlPlaneImage" in ClusterConfiguration was changed to a boolean field called "useHyperKubeImage".
+// - ClusterConfiguration now has a "dns" field which can be used to select and configure the cluster DNS addon.
+// - Both "localEtcd" and "dns" configurations now support custom image repositories.
+// - the "controlPlane*" related fields in JoinConfiguration were refactored into a sub structure.
+// - "clusterName" was removed from JoinConfiguration and the name is now fetched from the existing cluster.
 //
 // Migration from old kubeadm config versions

-// Please convert your v1alpha3 configuration files to v1beta1 using the kubeadm config migrate command of kubeadm v1.13.x
+// Please convert your v1alpha3 configuration files to v1beta1 using the "kubeadm config migrate" command of kubeadm v1.13.x
 // (conversion from older releases of kubeadm config files requires older release of kubeadm as well e.g.
 //	kubeadm v1.11 should be used to migrate v1alpha1 to v1alpha2; kubeadm v1.12 should be used to translate v1alpha2 to v1alpha3)
