I missed the first para in my prev mail. A weekly cron should be good
enough in most cases. You can look at a daily cron too, we have no
issues with either. The other alternative is that we call a script at
your end, each time we update the db. The script at your end will then
go and fetch the new db. Or we can have a mix of both push and pull.
