It uses the C++ source located in source/UpdateList* to iterate over
all the .desc files and check the upstream URL for matching updates.

Due to the many different version encodings, PHP download scripts
or forbidden directory listings the Update tracker can not, or not reliable
locate all files possible.

So we also lurk on freshmeat.net and co manually as well. If you
notice update that you want in T2  either drop a note here or
or provide a patch.

Updates to the Update tracker are also of course welcome, we also
probably should rewrite it in Lua as well.

Yours,
