We're

at

a

point

where

I'd

like

to

open

up

the

scripting

tools

that

I've

been

given

by

the

infrastructure

team

for

testing.

These

scripts

are

at

a

1.1

revision

state

and

I'll

be

collecting

feedback

over

next

few

days

with

an

expectation

to

release

another

draft

revision

for

the

afternoon

of

Tuesday

June

29th.

I

will

capture

any

feedback

I

receive

between

now

and

the

ECMD

Core

team

Meeting

tuesday

morning

to

go

into

the

revision.
