Cool.

Rebuilding and pushing the image for GCE is trivial but we've only
done it on demand/as needed or for releases so far. And no, your
instance does not update automatically when we push a new image. You
either have to restart or ssh to your instance and 'sudo systemctl
restart camlistored'.
If you want to see whether the image has changed recently, you can
just fetch it yourself at
https://storage.googleapis.com/camlistore-release/docker/camlistored.tar.gz
and check its hashsum or whatever.
Moving forward, we should probably announce it too when we push a new
one for some reason, to give y'all a chance to try it out I suppose.

Nope, following what's said above. we'd just have to rebuild/push the
image as soon as your change lands to the repo, and you could use your
importer on GCE.

Cool.

Not that I know of.
