Please add this -
Starting 1.30 kubernetes version and 1.27 LTS versions the beta apis will be disabled by default. There will be an option provided to enable explicitly beta apis closer to the 1.30 release.
If you use any programming/ scripting logic to list and select minor version before creating clusters - please ensure you update the logic to exclude LTS-only versions to avoid any breaks. Otherwise, if LTS is your path forward please first opt into premium tier and LTS support plan as mentioned in Long-term support for Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) - Azure Kubernetes Service | Microsoft before the create operation.
Calico can now be disabled for an AKS cluster through the update operation more info here -

Hi all, looking at the draft release notes I noticed that we say here "Support upgrade version skew policy between core node and control plane components from n-1 to n-3 per" - should this read instead "Support upgrade version skew policy between core node and control plane components from n-2 to n-3 per"?
Also does that mean that going forward we will support 4 stable versions from now on, that the n-3 will include a beta version too (if available) - if so I wonder if that's worthy of a separate call-out?

LGTM once Shashank's comments are addressed.
