ok, you are somehow about right, but finding the right medium seems to be the problem
here...do we bring the mountain to the prophet or the other way around? Even not at the
train station you have to subscribe to the broadcast...just be there. as you are, if you
make your update. why not letting tell the update-app, that it does not want to??

if you go to the doctor, will somebody else speak about your symptoms, or is it you? If
update is ill, why shouldn't update speak to me?
