Major Themes
Crossplane v0.8.0 is our second release of 2020! The majority of new functionality introduced in this release revolves around bringing template stacks from experimental to alpha quality. Now enabled by default on all Crossplane installations, template stacks make it easier than ever to package applications and infrastructure environments for deployment without writing any of your own controllers. As part of the work on template stacks, both sample-stack-wordpress and stack-minimal-gcp are now available for use with Crossplane v0.8.0.
