You are right, we can just use existing <install /> and <update /> tags to do so, but the <download /> tag just exist, and i think is more cleaner to use it. [ Indeed, this have nothing to do with my ''server side download'' script, using the global /noDownlaod switch on wpkg.js. Clearly, also my script can be easily extended to use md5 hashes... ] -- dott.
