Would it be easy to add update channels, so those of us using the beta version can be automatically notified if there's an update to the beta?

This is kind of already doable - or at least; I do it.

I played with some links, and was able to 'Follow' / Subscribe to the BYOND public builds topic. (id:180952)
Basically this url: (in DM tags for readability)

"http://www.byond.com/forum/?post=180952&command=subscribe_to_post&hash=[hash]&subscribe=1"


Replace the [hash] in there with your own hash.
You can find your own hash by viewing the page's source and CTRL+F / look for "hash".

Then, just copy and paste the link into the browser, and you'll get an alert every time Tom posts a new public update.

I would prefer a separate auto-update for the beta
