helm-mapkubeapis
This is a Helm plugin which map deprecated or removed Kubernetes APIs in a release to supported APIs
The biggest change for the end user is fixing 3-Way-Merge-related issues by introducing SSA. However, Helm still lacks proper CRD management, users have to deploy half of their resources as hooks to control their deployment order or to update immutable resources, and numerous years-old bugs (with whole plugins developed to work around them) migrate from one major release to another.

distribution-tooling-for-helm
Helm Distribution plugin is is a set of utilities and Helm Plugin for making offline work with Helm Charts easier. It is meant to be used for creating reproducible and relocatable packages for Helm Charts that can be moved around registries without hassles. This is particularly useful for distributing Helm Charts into airgapped environments.
I am not sure if this is part of the Bitnami Helm Chart Fiasco, but they seem to be changing open source projects from Apache to BSL.
Was looking at chart-syncer, and found: https://github.com/bitnami/charts-syncer/issues/307
And it depends on some tooling from VMware, which has the same notice: https://github.com/vmware-labs/distribution-tooling-for-helm/issues/132
Not that I'm surprised, just stumbled across this.
