What is a cascade menu? I read the release notes and documentation.

That’s not a … thing.

`cascade` is a configuration key that can be use to pass default configuration downwards (cascade …) in the page tree. Before 0.86, this was a front matter thing only. Now you can also configure a cascade in config.toml and similar.

Hey. Thanks. Not only is the CI image published for v0.86.0, apparently I fell behind for the last several releases. They’re all available now, back to v0.84.0.

Thank you. I was mixing up the first two paragraphs of the release notes not realizing they were talking about separate features: [Hugo 0.86.0: Cascade in Config | Hugo](https://gohugo.io/news/0.86.0-relnotes/)

I can’t manage to see the recent (i.e. post 0.83.1) Docker/CI images: am I alone?

There was a problem with my build system. I [reverted my change](https://github.com/cibuilds/hugo/pull/213) and then rebuilt the images between v0.84.0 to v0.86.0. They’re there now. I also ran `docker pull` for each one to verify this time. 🙂

Thanks for the catch.
