The most recent one. 

But, those causing a build after the request-for-smoke-test has been
sent are supposed to send a note to wtp-releng say why 
they are requiring a respin. To fix blocking, critical, or regression bugs
are usually good reasons ... but you have to let us all know what's going
on! 
We should not all have to investigate build diffs to figure out why you
caused a re-spin. 

In particular, please mention if your bug is of the type that others should
not bother smoke testing yet, or if your fix requires other teams to re-smoke
test. 

We'll take more draconian measures if people do not abide by this simple,
"just enough" policy towards rebuilds ... for example, we can
simple 
turn off the autobuild, and put in place an approval process? This approach
also requires someone to actually check that no other changes were made,
except those that were approved ... and I would _really_ like to avoid
it. 

But .... if anyone would prefer the stricter controls, and the delays they
cost, then feel free to say so and all the committers can decide. 

I suspect these week was worse than most, since there were a number of
very-broken builds due to new pre-reqs, new plugins/packages, etc. 
(If not that, then it's just because John is traveling for a few days,
and every thing turns to chaos without his constant shepherding :)

So which build is the 2.0 candidate for smoke test this week?  Three
or 
four integration builds have occurred since the declaration was sent.
