<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>Currently, for each Linux image, there are two series of images, one
with a datestamp (e,g, <code>_20180106_0</code>) and one with a <code>_latest</code> name
which gets renamed to <code>_prevN</code> and hidden upon a new <code>_latest</code> image
registration. We have followed a roughly monthly update schedule
(aligning with the Windows world) for the datestamp images and the
<code>_latest</code> images while pushing out additional <code>_latest</code> images in
between occasionally based on major improvements, bug fixes or security
issues.</p>
