+---
+
+The Apache Flink community is excited to announce the release of Flink 
Kubernetes Operator 1.12.0!
+The version brings a number of important fixes and improvements to both core 
and autoscaler modules.
+
+We encourage you to [download the 
release](https://flink.apache.org/downloads.html) and share your experience 
with the
+community through the Flink [mailing 
lists](https://flink.apache.org/community.html#mailing-lists) or
+[JIRA](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/flink)! We're looking forward to 
your feedback!
+
+## Highlights
+
+### Enhanced Error Visibility and Event Reporting
+
+This release places a strong emphasis on improving the visibility and 
transparency of errors across the entire Flink Kubernetes Operator stack. These 
improvements aim to significantly enhance the user experience by making error 
diagnosis and resolution faster and more intuitive.
+
+- **Comprehensive Event Reporting**: Events are now emitted across all 
critical stages of the job lifecycle-from controller errors within the operator 
itself, to failures during job startup, and even runtime exceptions within 
Flink jobs. This end-to-end observability ensures that users are promptly 
informed of any issues that occur.
+
+- **Detailed Error Messages**: The operator now captures and surfaces more 
granular error messages for deployment and reconciliation failures. These 
messages are visible in the custom resource status and help users understand 
and address problems more effectively.
+
+- **Automatic Kubernetes Event Generation**: Whenever a job enters the 
`FAILED` state or restarts unexpectedly, the operator emits corresponding 
Kubernetes events. These events can be consumed by external monitoring systems 
or used directly in `kubectl` to monitor job health.
+
+- **Improved Operator Diagnostics**: Controller-level errors, which were 
previously difficult to trace, are now clearly reported and contextualized with 
helpful messages, allowing users and developers to better trace the root cause 
of failures.
+
+These improvements make the Flink Kubernetes Operator more robust, 
transparent, and easier to operate, especially in complex or large-scale 
production environments.
+
+### Helm Chart Improvements
+
+- **Flink `config.yaml` Support**: The operator adds compatibility with 
Flink's `config.yaml` format, ensuring seamless integration with the latest 
Flink configurations.
+- **Upfront YAML Configuration Validation**: Introduced validation for Flink 
2.x configurations, enabling early detection of misconfigurations before 
deployment.
+- **Init and Sidecar Container Configuration**: Users can now configure init 
and sidecar containers within their deployments, offering greater flexibility 
in customizing the Flink runtime environment.
+- **Observer Optimization**: The observer component has been refined to avoid 
checking all JobManager replicas, reducing unnecessary overhead and improving 
performance.
+
+### Bug Fixes and Stability Enhancements
+
+- **Batch Job Completion Handling**: Resolved an issue where finished batch 
jobs threw `ReconciliationException` and did not reach the FINISHED state in 
the custom resource.
+- **Savepoint Information Update**: Fixed a bug where upgrade savepoints were 
not added to the deprecated `savepointInfo`, ensuring accurate tracking of 
savepoints during upgrades.
+- **Last-State Upgrade Mode for Flink 2.0**: Addressed a problem where the 
last-state upgrade mode was broken for Flink 2.0, restoring expected behavior 
during upgrades.
+- **Helm Chart Correction**: Corrected the Helm chart to reference the valid 
image repository, preventing deployment issues related to incorrect image paths.
