# re-fetch interval - only bug the server once every hour.
# allows wmbiff to ask us often how many packages have been
# updated so that the number goes back to cyan (old) from
# yellow (new) quickly on upgrade.

# this still doesn't mean we grab the whole file.  we get
# if-modified-since.  it just means we don't connect to the
# server more often than this.
