For those who may apply the prerelease updates, beware that I have found that (even with the default URL restored) we are NOT notified in the Admin that a new *final* release is ready.
I just tested it with my current implementation of CF 11 prerelease update 4, which I'd not yet removed. I am not being told of this final release of update 4. Again, I have indeed used the "restore default url" option and clicked the "check for updates" feature.
It's bad enough that people may forget to use the "restore default URL" feature, in which case they'd not hear of the final release (I suppose).
But I really would hope that if the URL WAS restored to the original, the update feature WOULD tell us that there IS a new final (by detecting that it's different than the prerelease one currently installed).
