It seem rancher 2.8 is not released for stable branch yet (as per their github page): https://github.com/rancher/rancher
and yes you are correct, per the release page for rancher 2.8 it does not show RKE2 1.28 (down in Versions section): https://github.com/rancher/rancher/releases/tag/v2.8.0

We (rke2/k3s) put out a release for every Kubernetes patch release, usually within a week or so. Rancher has their own schedule for publishing metadata to make new versions available in their UI. Rancher does not currently support 1.28+, and their release of metadata with patch updates for supported minor versions can lag a month or more behind.

Thanks for the information. Nice that rke2/k3s are so up to date and sad that Rancher can't keep up updating the metadata for minor versions.

they have a lot of testing to do, since they need to validate Rancher functionality on all the supported platforms - gke, eks, aks, and so on. All we have to do is update some versions, built, and test that.
