<p class="MsoNormal">I am excited at this opportunity to make the community aware that the Hyper-V CI infrastructure<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">is now up and running. Let’s first start with some housekeeping details. Our Tempest logs are<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Furthermore I would like to take a moment thank the team that made this moment possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is our first step, and as such was an incredible learning process for everyone involved.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We were able to accomplish something that most thought couldn’t be done.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would personally like to take some time thank those individuals whose tireless effort helped get us to this stage.
