Hey, folks. Sorry I didn't manage to send out any of these notifications up till now, but we have an Alpha RC now which is looking pretty good so far, and the Go/No-Go meeting is tomorrow, so if you could help do the desktop validation tests for your desktops that'd be great.

The validation page with info and instructions is here:

John Dulaney has already done several of the tests (thanks John, if you're reading!) and we have the necessary minimum coverage for sign-off, but it's always good to cover all desktops and get the Beta / Final tests done at Alpha stage so we know what's broken. So if you get a minute to help out, please do! Thanks.
