Hi All,

We still haven't a successful product build from bamboo due to various
failures in kernel and platform.
However, we did a smoke test cycle with the build [1] that announced by
dimuthuL and we didn't find any blocker.
We are looking forward to a successful bamboo build to announce as the
alpha pack.
