We don't want the check for updates to run automatically, because if there are any issues with the network (slow connection, timeouts etc), it could freeze the whole program. It would be (almost) acceptable that a slow connection froze AOO only when explicitly requested to check for upadtes. (Because this is the proposed workaround: carry out the update from the main thread). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
