Right.
I just checked the repo filelocation from bpa and erland, they have the
repo.xml (or latest.xml) straight from SVN trunk. That is of course
changeable and you'll always get the latest revision. Or am I missing
something?

Depends on the amount of installations of the plugin. 100, 1000, 10000,
100000, more?
But given the size of the XML file, that would still be a reasonable
amount, unless you have to pay by KB.
