- Much cleaner code (FreeBSD Update is now a shell script, rather than a
huge ugly makefile),
- Better performance,
- Reduced bandwidth usage when no updates are available,
- Warnings about files which have been affected by security updates, but
cannot be updated because they have been modified locally,
- An "intrusion detection" mode which compares every file which can be
installed as part of a RELEASE against a (signed) database of known good
hashes.
