+Barometer Kali Release Notes
+============================
+
+This document provides the release notes for Kali release of Barometer.
+
+Summary
+-------
+The Kali release is the first one since becoming part of Anuket, and focussed
+on changes that will make testing and integrating easier.
+
+Details
+-------
+Testing and build tools were developed and updated to do the following:
+
+* A new reference container was added for the collectd-6.0 version, which is
+ under development and represents a big API change that is not backwards
+ compatible. This reference build should facilitate porting the plugins that
+ were previously developed by the Barometer project.
+ https://jira.anuket.io/browse/BAROMETER-184
+
+* Updated to the stable version of collectd to collectd 5.12.
+
+* Removed duplication in the three existing containers (stable, latest and experimental).
+ https://jira.anuket.io/browse/BAROMETER-179
+
+Some work was started but not completed in the Kali release:
+
+* Updating of the ansible playbooks for generating configs so that they will be
+ easier to maintain and extend in the future.
+
+* Additional testing tools for verifying plugin functionality
