Hello !

Not really an issue here, more a question, because I was not able to find the information on the README, and I would like to know this before I give a try.

When users install this extension plus a private extension through it, will they be notified when an update of the private extension is released ? It's an interesting feature, that is available with the regular marketplace, so it might be worth mentioning the behavior in the README.

Anyway, thanks for this extension that seems useful!

Yes. It will periodically check for updates and notify you if a newer version of any installed extension is available. (You can control the check interval or disable it with the privateExtensions.updateCheckInterval setting.)

I'll add something to the readme about that setting. Thanks for letting me know it wasn't documented!
