Description Matt Reid 2012-09-12 17:16:23 UTC 
Description of problem:
We give a lot of importance to the next time the client will check in with its server, which doesn't seem as important as we're making it out to be. I'd like to see it removed from our three tab screens and pushed to the About screen. This will give us one less distraction.

No more "Next Update: Mon 10 Sep 2012 06:08:38 PM" on all of our tabs.

There was some talk when this came up about moving it to Facts, but without this being an actual fact, I think About is a better fit than putting it in Facts. About has some general info, such as versioning, and what its registered to. When it checks in next seems like a reasonable fit to add to those.

    856735: Move the Next Update notification to the About dialog.
Comment 3 Alex Wood 2012-11-19 18:14:39 UTC 
Note that the Next Update text functionality has changed slightly.  The date shown in the About dialog is rendered when the dialog is opened and not subsequently refreshed.  This change is a slight departure from the old method of display where the date would refresh itself as the file containing the next update time changed.

next system check

The next system update information has been masterfully moved from all the old locations and into the about window.  VERIFIED.
