 ## unreleased
 
+* [CHANGE] [#718](https://github.com/k8ssandra/cass-operator/issues/718) Update Kubernetes dependencies to 0.31.0 and controller-runtime to 0.19.x, remove controller-config and instead return command line options as the only way to modify controller-runtime options. cass-operator specific configuration will still remain in the OperatorConfig CRD. Removes kube-auth from the /metrics endpoint from our generated configs and instead adds network-policy generation as one optional module for Kustomize.
+* [CHANGE] [#527](https://github.com/k8ssandra/cass-operator/issues/527) Migrate the Kustomize configuration to Kustomize 5 only. Support for using Kustomize 4.x to generate config is no longer supported.
