Yeah, we already had several attempts to move Extreme to create a simple =
ZIP archive with alle the necessary documentations and relesae notes for =
the specific releases.
But this tasks seems kinda very difficult and complicated so until now =
you still have to search and download them manually in the Extreme Force =
Portal=E2=80=A6
We will have another attempt very soon, I think.

Also the notification portal where you can subscribe to new releases =
doesn=E2=80=99t work for us with the SLX / SLX-OS.
We still don=E2=80=99t receive an update when a new release is out...

Kind regards,
Lino
