Title
Update notification
One line summary
Add a check for update entry menu in EiffelStudio for getting newer versions.
Description
Create a notification service that will let users know when there is a new version of EiffelStudio available for download. It has to work on Unix, Windows and Mac OS. It should be done in such a way that when we release a new version, there is almost nothing to be done on the server side to let users know there is an update.
Skills needed
Basic knowledge of network protocols. It is a plus if you know how installation programs work, especially Windows MSIs and Linux packages.
Difficulty
Medium
Licensing
GPLv2
Documentation
Mostly on the http://dev.eiffel.com since it is internal.
Submitter

Possible mentor
