+** davel: In the past, I asked for testing of the updater and/or update logic
+** davel: bsmedberg, you need to test 2 parts - update checking logic, and updater.
+** davel: bsmedberg, I think just snooping the url used to fetch update info is enough for first pass testing of the logic.
+** davel: bsmedberg, then create a set of nop (or limited-op) partial mar files, and run the updater by hand.
+** davel: bsmedberg, after that testing is complete, we can start on end-to-end testing.  But I'd like to see the above tests done first to catch obvious bugs.
