Yeah, I know.  I'd like to be able to have a URL that contains just the HTML for the page contents (and eliminate the other clutter).  Trac should allow this, but when I looked into it, I couldn't find anything to do it.

Odd.  I tested that exact update path just now.  I wonder if you were given the Leopard version.  I was told by the Sparkle developers that the setup I have should work (providing the SL update to SL users and the Leo version to Leo users).  

I'll comment about this in the existing reports to them:
