pressflow/6 — Issue #30: update notification service

We increased our drush usage on all drupal projects. When drush pm-update command is used to update a Pressflow instance, it would update it Drupal vanilla, rather than the latest Pressflow release.

I looked into Drush code and documantation and also the Pressflow code changes. Apparently Drush's behavior is normal, since it checks the update status via installed Drupal/Pressflow instance's update.module

Honestly I was expecting Pressflow would patch update.module with Pressflow's update notification service URL for the core, and the default for the contributed modules and themes. So that Drush would work as expected and update Pressflow, rather than replacing it with Drupal vanilla.

Is there any plan for near future to make this kind of of a change? Or is it against Drupal policies?

Thanks,
