Comment(by phobos):

 Replying to [comment:23 mikeperry]:
 > FYI: Until https://check.torproject.org/RecommendedTBBVersions is the
 correct file, everyone will get the "You need to upgrade" page, even fresh
 installs. It defaults to assuming you're out of date if the file fetch or
 parse fails.

 And this is why I don't like to rush stuff out there. The default failure
 mode should be to do nothing, not tell everyone they're out of date.  The
 RecommendedTBBVersions file is removed, yet check keeps telling me to
 upgrade.

 There is no cronjob set, it's manual right now until we can be sure this
 works correctly.
