New functionality is introduced all the time, and I'm not aware of a policy (defacto or official) that prevents it, other than those limiting merges to the quarterly branch to bugfixes or security updates.

Does the client provide no existing way of setting an update interval or similar? What other methods could achieve it, or emulate it? Does the no-ip client provide 'one shot' invocation so updates could be cron'd on a custom interval? I agree with Kurt that addition of an 'update interval' feature or similar upstream would be the proper permanent resolution. ./koobs
