Confused on adding platforms

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

I recently installed latest BOA with the standard procedure of getting BOA.sh.txt via wget and then "barracuda up-stable".
I don't see how to add latest Drupal 7.27, I only have 7.24, I was expecting latest Drupal on latest BOA release.
I am confused on how to add platform, I already downloaded core, but don't know how to use make file.
Sorry for asking basic questions.

Thank you. Nice, added bookmark, now please clarify, are those .txt files somewhere in the BOA install or the method you mention is the only one available?

Code repository

Perhaps you didn't realize it, but the code for every Drupal project can be found at the project page. So from the link I provided you earlier you can find the Octopus repo by looking in the right column for "Repository Viewer." Here's the link to the Octopus repo: http://drupalcode.org/project/octopus.git.

Assuming the developer has included README or other help files in the code for the module, you will always find them there. (http://drupalcode.org/project/octopus.git/tree/refs/heads/6.x-2.x)

The developers of BOA have done an especially good job of documentation and you should always look first at the project page and the files to answer your questions.

Thanks again, point

Thanks again, point taken.
About BOA docs, maybe very good for devs, not so friendly for newbs like me.
