I'm fairly new to Wordpress but have just found out how easy it is to update a third party Plugin. The Sparkpost plugin had an update available for it, so I clicked on the Details and it said what was new and gave me the option to Update or not. Done in 10 seconds!
How easy was that? No messing about, no e-mail notification saying a download/plugin has been updated via the author but not actually saying what the changes are, no having to go to the Marketplace to see what's new in the
