v0.14.0

We have just released version v0.14.0 of our managed collection for Kubernetes and v2.45.3-gmp.9-gke.0 of self-deployed collection.

Users who deploy managed collection using kubectl should reapply the manifests in the documentation. Users who deploy the service using gcloud or the GKE UI are being upgraded on clusters running version 1.31 or newer. Self-deployed collection users should upgrade their binaries to use v2.45.3-gmp.9-gke.0.
