'''This is a Test Build'''. Targeted for use by multiple deployments worldwide, this is the first test build for what will be Dextrose2. Based on the latest Dextrose1, this build adds additional language support, and removes country specific logos. While stable and ready for general use, we do appreciate feedback and bug reports.
