   My 2 cents:
   
   - One of the key benefits of having separate providers was so that we can 
release them at a separate cadence from the core and release them on an ad-hoc 
basis. We started receiving few issues on Github on this Kubernetes Bug and so 
I wanted to release this provider asap since the fix was already merged around 
18 Feb.
   - For most of the providers I would check the changelog and based on my 
confidence in it would decide whether I should test or not.
   - We should release all providers at a regular cadence too (I am hoping that 
the release policy guide for providers will cover the actual frequency - 2/3 
weeks vs a month)
   
   So I agree with the following principles (that you both stated separately) :
   
   - We should be able to release providers on an ad-hoc basis -- if something 
breaks, fix it and release the provider. Easy to test and verify.
   - We shouldn't need to test each item in the provider -- make the decision 
based on the Changelog -- if there are just doc updates for example or just 
changing a minor code, no point in testing.
