Two things:

- available package modes: base - updates are checked at each login (can be slow if it contains many files), required - updates are checked if the local version differs, optional - only downloaded if the user downloads it, we will improve this soon though to display a special window where it tells you about optional updates (like new RCs)
Thanks for the additional information, anyhow my goal was just to post it and get people that manage a server to actualy be aware that the automatic/optional updates also work on their server. Since I noticed that not many of the "Classic/Hosted" server staff where aware of the gupd's.
