<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="ES">I ask you to communicate with your neighboring nodes and help keep the network up to date. Everybody wins.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="ES">This attempt to remove archaic builds should only be the beginning. There are tools for our nodes to keep up.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="ES">I have created a small script that checks if a new build exists, if so it triggers the node to be updated and rebooted at 00:00 (or whenever defined in the crontab). In this way we avoid having to look at it continuously,
and it is guaranteed that we are updated.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
