It's been a while since I tested permissions on items picked up from other grids too, but in general that sounds like a reasonable plan. I've seen objects like the Hypergates update themselves (I think, maybe the owner has to click on them to get the updates?) and they are pretty widespread across many grids, so you might look at their distribution methods as an example.
http://thehypergates.com/ I distribute all of my freebies as IAR files on the web and have full perms "anyone can copy" boxes on my grid. My only suggestion for the packages is that you don't use buy for 0 as the default click option because some grids might not have that enabled in their configuration, but allow anyone to copy seems to work no matter how things are configured. And of course I'd be happy to help test or distribute or whatever you need too. Exciting to hear about a new update! Congrats! :) - Chris/Fleep Chris M.
