When MACR updates Xtras within a release (it sounds like you are 
referring to  updates to the original d8.0 Xtra set), they generally 
they go into the same 'xtrainfo locations' (in this case; 
/Shockwave8/), and so always get auto-downloaded without the need of 
revving existing projects.

& if there were a d8.5.1, any new packages would get posted into the 
/Shockwave85/ locations used by the d8.5 package set.
