No problem, I'm glad you like it! :-)

Yes. I have a beta repo which I am using to update my development boxes, 
but the stable one will go in the production repo for both apt and yum. 
You may have to tweak preferences.php a little bit, but otherwise "yum 
update zendto" will do it for you. I am deliberately keeping changes to 
preferences.php down to an absolute minimum.

If you have changed request_sent.tpl then you will find you pick up a 
new request_sent.tpl.rpmnew file when you yum update to version 4, but 
it will probably be the same as your edited request_sent.tpl file 
anyway, if you have just done the change I suggested.
