ConfigConnector release GKE add-on cadence

[rrosa]

Hello, 

I've a question on the update cadence for ConfigConnector, when it's installed as an add-on.

Without giving any hard dates, what time can we expect the update to version 1.109.0?
I was looking forward to defining the registry clean up policies, but want to define it as code.

Hi @rrosa,

Welcome to the Google Cloud Community!

From the documentation [1]:

The version of Config Connector installed through Config Connector add-on can be significantly behind by up to 12 months. If you need the latest Config Connector version, we recommend switching to Config Controller or manually installing Config Connector and performing upgrades yourself. The migration instructions for each option are:

• To switch to Config Controller, follow the Config Controller migration instructions to migrate your existing Config Connector resources to a Config Controller instance.

• To manually install Config Connector, follow the instructions to switch from Config Connector add-on to Manual installation.

I hope this helps. Thank you.
