I can offer up my OS X 10.5.6 PPC beta testing ....
But I probably won't end up using it . No offence intended here Mr Shirik but I don't think it meets my needs. I update only every week or so off email updates in a folder in my email. I prefer to examine every change log to see if it's a major update , minor update or if it's an update i'm either interested in or need. This whole process only takes me 15 mins or so. I guess my perfect updater program solution would be one that gets these emails out of my email box , examines them for specificed tags then downloads and installs them automatically , giving me a report. Not really feasible but I'm happy with my current updating method.

To me I think that when an addon author releases an addon, they have released something that they thought was worth updating for. I know it isn't a perfect world an that sometimes it is only a localization update, but for the most part who better to say "Okay guys time to update" then the people who are intimate with the coding of the addon. Do you know something that they don't? Are you in a better position than they are to judge whether something is worth it? Like I said I can't and won't push you to change your system, just providing some food for thought here. I for one am greatful that Minion is soon to be released. With it the updating process should take 1-3 minutes, and I'll let the addon authors tell me whether to update by whether they release an update or not. Not to mention that I will be recommending Minion to all of my raiders for the quick updates on raid day. I've seen 30 minutes on raid day lost to an important update being released same day and everyone scurrying to find where to download it. With Minion they'll know right where to go to grab it. Thanks to everyone behind Minion! Can't wait for the beta release! |

http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...t=23447&page=2 My reply got too long and I don't wanna derail this thread 
Personally and I'm not trying to make a personal dig here but I prefer to know _exactly_ where to find updates for any of my addons. Makes things much easier when I need to go yell at the author for missing something out
