I like the idea of being able to see what updates/fixes are available
vs. the code that I'm running. I think this would definitely be helpful
to me.

Like others on here, I'd like to see it as a console command - I'd like
to be able to come into the office in the morning and type 'check motv'
on the console, and see if there's anything I need/want. Having it
auto-phone-home on startup wouldn't be too useful for me, since this
would only occur when we were already performing an upgrade. As far as
the periodic message, again that wouldn't be too useful, I wouldn't be
looking at the console to see the results.
