I wasn't expecting that to be honest. I thought my previous email was clear
about not building anything any more. I must do yet again another test to
make sure the most recent ISO has nothing wrong and if anything will
happen, we shall use the previous one, that is the 2nd latest. To be more
specific:

http://phillw.net/isos/torios/oldISO/ToriOS-2016-08-22-beta-jessie.iso
http://phillw.net/isos/torios/oldISO/md5sum-2016-08-22

We shall use that one IF and ONLY IF there is something wrong with the most
recent one:

http://phillw.net/isos/torios/oldISO/ToriOS-2016-08-27-beta-jessie.iso
http://phillw.net/isos/torios/oldISO/md5sum-2016-08-27

I shall confirm that once I'm done with testing.

YES, please!
No further building is required unless I ask the otherwise.

Not at the moment. No further updates is required at this point.
Once 1.0 is released, we can discuss how to go and what to do with 1.1 but
not now, please.

Is it better now?

Daily images will be under:
http://torios.top/download/testing/

And I'd suggest to HOLD that until we release 1.0 so we can invest our time
wisely and focus on releasing 1.0 only.
