Hi, sorry for coming late to the discussion... anyway, I don't think it makes much sense to let users decide at what interval to check for updates. That should be exclusively the decision of TDF, because TDF provides the servers and has to handle the server load [1] and also LibreOffice has a relatively regular release cadence. Users on the other hand tend to not know the release cadence of LibreOffice very well, thus the update check will often fire either very late (monthly check) or unnecessarily often (daily). (Also, removing that would save us three options.) For some interesting ideas about spreading update checks equally over time, also see here: http://adblockplus.org/blog/downloading-a-file-regularly-how-hard-can-it-be
