Purpose of Test Group Release Notes
If you are thinking of loading a new image; come to this page first and see if the build you are going to load has any major problems. If it can't even pass the Smoke Test, you probably don't want to use it.

If you don't see anything here on the latest release, please add your notes on smoke test and/or basic functionality to help the next guy.
