Comment(by karsten):

 Replying to [comment:11 erinn]:
 > Putting it in src/config is probably better because it doesn't rely on
 various network services or other machines functioning. If once a month is
 frequent enough to keep fallback descriptors fresh then that sounds like a
 great solution to me.

 nickm, is this a workable solution?  If so, I could prepare a branch
 similar to the geoip update branch once per month for you to merge.  I
 could even do two commits in a single branch if that makes things simpler.
 Let me know what works best.

 > Are there any deadlines for this? Let me know how to prioritize the
 testing package for you. I can get you one by the end of the month, unless
 it's more urgent in which case I can try to get it for you this week or
 sooner. I will make an OSX TBB.

 No deadlines in the next weeks.  Take your time.  Thanks!
