 ====== Nightly Builds ======
-Nightly builds are derived from the [[git|X2Go Git]] site and always reflect the state of HEAD in Git (branch: master). Use nightly-builds at your very own risk.
+Nightly builds are derived from the [[git|X2Go Git]] site and always reflect the state of HEAD in Git (branch: master).
+Help us testing new X2Go component versions by installing nightly built X2Go packages on your test rigs. Use nightly-builds at your very own risk and give feedback if things break after installation of nightly built packages.
+If unsure, ask on [[contact:start#join_us_on_irc|IRC]] or on the [[contact:start#mailing_lists|X2Go development mailing list]] before installing nightly built packages.
+**FYI:** For those who wonder what the word ,,heuler" means when stumbling over some of the nightly-builds package archive URLs. A ,,heuler" is the German word for a [[http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seehund#Heuler|baby seal]] that has been abandoned by its mother (or whose mother has been killed by seal hunters).
