 Description  « Hide
Beta releases will be included in the Spark auto-update process.
  • Users must opt-in through a Spark setting in the preferences window
    • The setting is a checkbox in the "Notifications" pane in the preferences window that reads "Check for Beta Updates"
    • The default is unchecked
  • When enabled, Spark checks for both beta releases and normal releases
  • If a new release is available the user is prompted to upgrade, just like it currently works with general releases of Spark

As discussed, a good way to implement this is to pass in an extra param for the web service call to indicate that the a beta release can be returned as the newest.
