Separate security release notification and code update functionality in update status module

Created on 22 March 2021, about 4 years ago
Updated 14 May 2025, 18 days ago

Problem/Motivation

Update module currently handles at least two separate things:

1. Provides security and bugfix release notifications to site owners.

2. Provides the UI to allow site owners to update their sites via uploading tarballs.

Additionally, the automatic updates initiative is adding additional infrastructure to enable unattended updates.

There will be many sites that would like to have notifications for security releases and bugfixes, but have no intention of managing their code base via the UI, so we should consider splitting these two functions into different modules.
