A nice enhancement to the below code would be to change http://showcase.uworks.net/updated.html to
instead point to the newly-installed version. Example:
http://showcase.uworks.net/updated.html#0.9.4.6
or
http://showcase.uworks.net/updates/0.9.4.6.html
This way the user can easily read release notes specifically for his update.
