## Source excerpt

The Kubernetes attributes processor, which enriches your telemetry with Kubernetes metadata, has officially moved to v1.0.0! You can try it out on your custom distro, and it is also available as part of the latest opentelemetry-collector-contrib and opentelemetry-collector-k8s distro releases. Being v1.0.0 means the component is now verified to fulfill the 'stable' stability criteria including requirements around testing, benchmarking, documentation and telemetry stability. It also ensures you can redistribute it as a Go library or as part of your binaries without API breakage.
