Glad to hear you've been > working on it, but I couldn't tell that from the bug trackers :) We do have some mockups [1] for this already, but they assume the presence of the new Software application. The same workflow might be possible with the existing pieces though. Some points here: 1. The notification should only be displayed once the updates have been silently downloaded in the background - it isn't a notification that updates are available, but that they are ready to be installed. 2. We should always install system updates offline - having online and offline for them seems odd and inconsistent. 3. We might also want to consider reminders. I'm not sure if there have been discussions about this already, but showing a notification on a daily basis seems about right. I'm keen to see this fixed too, and actually filed a bug about it upstream [2]. If there are any outstanding design questions, feel free to ask and we will work it out.
