+apisix-ingress-controller 2.0.0-rc1
+
+Welcome to the 2.0.0-rc1 release of apisix-ingress-controller!
+
+This is a feature release.
+
+## Highlights
+
+**Add Gateway API Extensions `apisix.apache.org/v1alpha1`**
+
+Enable additional features not included in the standard Kubernetes Gateway 
API, developed and maintained by Gateway API implementers to extend 
functionality securely and reliably.
+
+* GatewayProxy: Defines connection settings between the APISIX Ingress 
Controller and APISIX, including auth, endpoints, and global plugins. 
Referenced via parametersRef in Gateway, GatewayClass, or IngressClass
+
+* BackendTrafficPolicy: Defines traffic management settings for backend 
services, including load balancing, timeouts, retries, and host header handling 
in the APISIX Ingress Controller.
+
+* Consumer: Defines API consumers and their credentials, enabling 
authentication and plugin configuration for controlling access to API endpoints.
+
+* PluginConfig: Defines reusable plugin configurations that can be referenced 
by other resources like HTTPRoute, enabling separation of routing logic and 
plugin settings for better reusability and manageability.
+
+* HTTPRoutePolicy: Configures advanced traffic management and routing policies 
for HTTPRoute or Ingress resources, enhancing functionality without modifying 
the original resources.
+
+**Support APISIX Standalone API-Driven Mode (Experimental)**
+
+This new implementation addresses the issue of ETCD instability in Kubernetes, 
removing the need for ETCD support. Routing rules are now stored entirely in 
memory and can be updated through the API. This change allows you to run 
Ingress Controllers more reliably in a stateless mode.
+
+You can enable this mode in APISIX Ingress Controller configuration file by 
specifying:
+
+```yaml
+provider:
+  type: "apisix-standalone"
+```
+
+**For major changes introduced in this release, refer to the [upgrade 
guide](https://github.com/apache/apisix-ingress-controller/blob/0db882d66d5b9dfb7dc9dd9d2045d4709b1c6ed2/docs/upgrade-guide.md#upgrading-from-1xx-to-200-key-changes-and-considerations).**
+
+If you encounter any problems while using the implementation, please [submit 
an issue](https://github.com/apache/apisix-ingress-controller/issues) along 
with the reproduction steps. The APISIX Team will review and resolve it.

+
+## Highlights
+
+**Add Gateway API Extensions `apisix.apache.org/v1alpha1`**
+
+Enable additional features not included in the standard Kubernetes Gateway 
API, developed and maintained by Gateway API implementers to extend 
functionality securely and reliably.
+
+* GatewayProxy: Defines connection settings between the APISIX Ingress 
Controller and APISIX, including auth, endpoints, and global plugins. 
Referenced via parametersRef in Gateway, GatewayClass, or IngressClass
+
+* BackendTrafficPolicy: Defines traffic management settings for backend 
services, including load balancing, timeouts, retries, and host header handling 
in the APISIX Ingress Controller.
+
+* Consumer: Defines API consumers and their credentials, enabling 
authentication and plugin configuration for controlling access to API endpoints.
+
+* PluginConfig: Defines reusable plugin configurations that can be referenced 
by other resources like HTTPRoute, enabling separation of routing logic and 
plugin settings for better reusability and manageability.
+
+* HTTPRoutePolicy: Configures advanced traffic management and routing policies 
for HTTPRoute or Ingress resources, enhancing functionality without modifying 
the original resources.
+
+**Support APISIX Standalone API-Driven Mode (Experimental)**
+
+This new implementation addresses the issue of ETCD instability in Kubernetes, 
removing the need for ETCD support. Routing rules are now stored entirely in 
memory and can be updated through the API. This change allows you to run 
Ingress Controllers more reliably in a stateless mode.
+
+You can enable this mode in APISIX Ingress Controller configuration file by 
specifying:
+
+```yaml
+provider:
+  type: "apisix-standalone"
+```
+
+**For major changes introduced in this release, refer to the [upgrade 
guide](https://github.com/apache/apisix-ingress-controller/blob/0db882d66d5b9dfb7dc9dd9d2045d4709b1c6ed2/docs/upgrade-guide.md#upgrading-from-1xx-to-200-key-changes-and-considerations).**
