Extremely Lightweight and Does What it Says

I checked the code of this plugin before installing it: it does what it says and absolutely nothing else. It basically just adds the minimum code to enable the auto-updates within WordPress. There is absolutely nothing else in there, which is awesome. Install this plugin and rest easy it's not bogging down your website like 99% of plugins out there.
