@justinsb Any chance we can get a 1.10.1 release for this? It seems like a small thing but would help quite a few people with the Unlimited mode as well as baseline price savings compared to t2.

This would be very useful for me. I have been waiting for support for T2 Unlimited (#4032) for a long time now, however as that has yet to be implemented within kops, T3 support would be a suitable replacement (as T3's all have the Unlimited functionality included by default).

:D
Can't wait for next release.. literally.. might compile the code instead of waiting lol.

@justinsb Bump for official patch release :D

@justinsb I second the necessity for putting out a patch release with support for t3. I may get adventurous and compile a build with this support. I foolishly reserved some t3 instances thinking kops would support it, because why wouldn't it? Bit of a shock.

Can we get this out as a build please? (and also rethink how instance types are handled so that we don't have to wait for a release for such a simple but important thing.)

@manojlds I agree with you that it would be good to rethink instance support and the ability to modify it dynamically either through a manifest file or something, rather than being solely hardcoded into the binary.

FYI 1.11.0-beta-1 was recently released
https://github.com/kubernetes/kops/releases/tag/1.11.0-beta.1

Although 1.11 still won't support dynamic instance types, it at least has t3 instance support.

There is ETA for the final version? or any workaround to use not supported types?

@Ishahar the work around is to install the beta.
As for when the final release will be available, best I can say is to look at the previous release history for an estimate. Looks like 20-40 days between beta and official release.
