We could send a board wide email with each update of DietPi once released. Would that be good?

Re: Notification on updates
Actually, I think this would not be sufficient.
To get informed about updates being available I currently have to login to my Pi.
With your solution I would need to login into my Pi but look at the board.
Both actions are like pull actions. So I'd really love to get informed via email.

Code: Select all
