Hi guys,

Just wanted to put this out there: I’d like for Discourse to automatically update itself when a new version is avaialble.

The current two-click upgrade is impressive, but I really just blindly click the buttons, tab away to something else, and close it later without inspecting the output. I would benefit more from a completely automated process that emails me to report success or failure of the upgrade.

Bonus points if updates can be scheduled to happen within certain windows (so I can pick a time with low traffic and when I’d be awake to fix a failure). Extra bonus points if it can attempt rollback on failure to prevent downtime. For my purposes, though, these would be gravy and not necessary.

Dan
