Hi Drew. Nice to see you here =) In fact the guy told us that updates must be as automated as possible. It's because people who will do the maintenance job are not skilled enogh and asking them to type "dpkg -i blablabla" is out of question. I proposed him to offer some sort of bash script that could download and install the packages without much user interference, if automatic updates or a PPA aren't available soon. It's not the best option, but it could give time for the other options to become available.
