## Executive Summary (TL;DR)
Helm v2.2.0. Source highlight: 💝  This Valentine's day, the Kubernetes Helm team would like to show some love with the newly minted Helm 2.2.0 release. 💝

## New Features
- Added `.Release.Revision`, `.Release.IsUpgrade` and `.Release.IsInstall`
- Added `.Capabilities` for learning about the capabilities of the Kubernetes cluster
- Added `fromYAML` function
- Helm 2.3.0 is the next feature release. Our big goals for 2.3.0 include a plugin manager for Helm plugins and a substantial overhaul of Helm and Tiller's AuthN/AuthZ story.

## Bug Fixes
- Test, debug, and contribute charts: GitHub/kubernetes/charts
- Any chart that worked on a previous version of Helm MUST work on a new version of Helm (barring the cases where (a) Kubernetes itself changed, and (b) the chart worked because it exploited a bug)
- Patch releases will begin with Helm 2.2.1, and will be released as needed. These will contain only bug fixes and security fixes.
