Description

The manual currently contains the information that the reader should subscribe to the announce mailing list.

This is great, but it alone does not help.

Although you might think it is self-evident, better add that after a Security Bulletin updates should also be done really quickly. The reader should remember that as TYPO3 is open source, attackers can just compare the new secure and the old unsecure version and can then easily figure out how to abuse an security hole.
