@Frank: Now I am offered version 8.1.4.2 on all channels except „nightly“.

@all,

so far, no one has answered my question, so I want to rephrase it: Why do you 
think that the admin can not be enabled to update via web interface as soon as 
the new version is available? I am the admin of my OC installation, and must 
decide when I can and want to update my installation. I do not understand why 
there is a delay for the web interface when the update is already released and 
publicly available. „Testing is everything“ can not be the answer. If you 
release a new version that is not beta or an RC, then the time for testing is 
over.

Then again I want to raise the problem of security - if you release a new 
version, usually it contains a lot of security fixes. Those are public 
knowledge as soon as the new sources and the release notes are on the server. 
This is all well and fine if I update as soon as possible, but your practice 
forces me over and over again to take to the console. Which I can handle, but 
then why did you bother to implement the update function in the web interface?

Besides, „a few days“ has now been „a few weeks“, and if you care to take a 
look into the OC forums, this issue is raised with almost every update. This is 
in no way clear or consistend from my point of view. 

Regards
Jim Knopf
