Release v0.3

This is the v0.3 release of the samba-operator project. The samba-operator aims to be a convenient way to manage Samba based SMB shares within a Kubernetes cluster. The project provides a samba-operator OCI container image as well as YAML to serve as the basis of an example deployment.

The developers of the samba-operator project are happy to establish our latest release. While the samba-opeator is still a fairly young project we think it's stable enough to see wider adoption. To report bugs, ask questions, make comments, or particpate in development please visit our project repository at https://github.com/samba-in-kubernetes/samba-operator.

• SMB Metrics support for server pods on OpenShift
