Uses recommended labels

[ant31]

The official documentation recommends the usage of a common set of labels in all resources.

@ant31 can you be more specific about what are you requesting?

[ant31]

@aledbf sure.
As part of sig-apps we came to an agreement that the community should use the same set of labels to improve interoperability between application.
Instead of having many variants of a label with the same semantic, e.g app, k8s-app, name, app-name.... we should all use the same, in this case: app.kubernetes.io/name

This repo proposes several resources to install ingress-nginx, is it possible that update those resources to follow the official guideline?

I can propose the PR

Sure.

This will be additional labels or we need to remove the existing ones?

[aledbf]

@ant31 is there a proposal in sig-apps for this feature?

[ant31]

it has been discussed over a long period and now it's merged in the k8s.io/doc
https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/common-labels/#labels

for reference here few documents/PR related to it:

This will be additional labels or we need to remove the existing ones?

It would be redoundant to keep both, it should not break anything to replace existing one, but it could be done in two times if you prefer

but it could be done in two times if you prefer

No need. We can add a note in the changelog mentioning this change.

@ant31 is there a plan to do something with this new standard labels once most of the users start using it?
