Current Kali Status

[Peregrine]

Loaded the latest Qubes on a new box. Would like to install/activate Kali. Can someone advise the current status of Kali

I have search the forum and found a number of Kali posts. But nothing clear on if Kali is stable on the latest Qubes release.

Thanks

As long as you can accept risk of template expose to network for morph proccess.
