The Patch Tuesday Blog is a collection of resources for everything Patch Tuesday. We will add the latest patches released from Microsoft for Patch Tuesday onto the site, test them, and report our findings monthly. However, we’re at the beginning stages of bringing everything together and would like to build the website with the community. Initially, we’ll be listing patches that Microsoft releases directly onto the site, but we’re looking to automate the testing of the patches to see if they break anything.
