I disagree, pseudoupdating has the benefit that you can guarantee that you
have the latest version of a document, so-called "real" updating won't
have such guarantees.  Pseudoupdating is perfect for regular publication
of stuff, where as real-updating wouldn't be.  I think there will always
be a place for pseudo-updating for this reason.
