There's a thread on this & it listed the properties that were in the trial. I'll try to find it later, although it might be buried in a different thread which will make it harder to come up on search.
FWIW - I don't know if they'll continue w/ the trial/expend it into normal part of the program or now wait until 2018 when they merge both systems/programs.
Cheers.
