But as long as it isn't broken and as long as it is not too complicated to be built in I think it would be a good addition :) > > just an additional idea - you could set up then two > > update-possibilities: stable and nightly.

I just thought that it could be done via Sparkle. If I understood the framework right it is just an appcast (in contrast to a podcast) and that you would need only two feeds then while the user selects in the preferences which he wants. The person who does the nightly build would just have to update the rss-feed in addition to the nightly build, wouldn't he/she?
