### Docker Image Built and Released
We also release a Docker image (see [expeditor config](https://github.com/inspec/inspec/blob/44fe144732e1e0abb2594957a880c5f1821e7774/.expeditor/config.yml#L150)), which contains an Alpine system and Chef InSpec installed from a gem, with the ENTRYPOINT of the Docker image being `inspec` (see [Dockerfile](https://github.com/inspec/inspec/blob/main/Dockerfile)). It's a simple way to ship the dependencies of `inspec`.
We also release a Docker image (see [expeditor config](https://github.com/inspec/inspec/blob/main/.expeditor/config.yml#L156)), which contains an Ubuntu 18.04 system and Chef InSpec installed from a gem, with the ENTRYPOINT of the Docker image being `inspec` (see [Dockerfile](https://github.com/inspec/inspec/blob/main/Dockerfile)). It's a simple way to ship the dependencies of `inspec`.
When it succeeds, the Docker build is labeled as `current`. Currently, there is nothing that promotes the Docker image to the `stable` label ([#4952](https://github.com/inspec/inspec/issues/4952)).
A [dobi.yaml](https://github.com/inspec/inspec/blob/main/dobi.yaml) that defines the Docker images to build. For more information on how this file is used, please check out the [Chef Expeditor docs](https://expeditor.chef.io/docs/pipelines/docker/)

### Update Pending Release Notes
As you merge each pull request, update the [Pending Release Notes](https://github.com/inspec/inspec/wiki/Pending-Release-Notes). Some guidelines:
* Do not include minor or non-customer visible changes, such as CI changes or test harness changes.
* Do include bug fixes, features, and other things that impact the user.
* Your words will be edited by the Docs team, but try help them along by keeping it human oriented; this isn't the technical-oriented CHANGELOG.
@ -112,9 +113,9 @@ Generally, expeditor issues and failures that appear unrelated to the InSpec PR
During promotion (see below), the build process is not currently idempotent. That means if promotion fails, __do not simply press the `retry` button__. It is likely that you will need to get support from Releng or do some elements of the promotion manually. One example of this is currently `publish_rubygems`. If that step passes and a later step fails, all steps will fail on `publish_rubygems` as it is already published. This part of documentation will be updated once there is a supported `retry`.
At the moment the best-known solution is to comment out the lines of the build that have passed (keeping an eye on their dependencies), merging that PR into master, waiting for the new build and version bump, and re-running the promotion command against the failed InSpec promotion version.

Occasionally there may be an unexplainable expeditor error. One thing to quickly check is the version of expeditor being run against the current "master" expeditor. In certain cases our expeditor will __not__ automatically update and the bugfix we require is on a future expeditor version. To fix this you need to manually restart the inspec:inspec-master agent here: https://expeditor.chef.io/dashboard/#/agents
