So, say we have 30updates/day currently. With this model they would pile up and then be tested in a unit? Then once a week all 210 of them would be pushed out? (The once a day blorp becomes a larger once a week blorp). Who is testing them "as a single unit" ? How much time for testing would there be? If another update shows up the day before the weekly push, it would be deferred to the next one? How about 2 days? 3? Would security updates hold for the next weekly push? Or push out as they are done? If so, wouldn't that mess up in progress testing? kevin
