    It would be nice if this solution also allowed querying Microsoft Update Catalog for information about updates, which would be a really nice alternative to IE-only based website.

    Additionally we would like a way to install all updates within a repo or create "channels" similar to spacewalk on linux for baselines. ie. Win2k12R2_Updates_Jan, Win2k12_Updates_June, etc.

    Or create groupings or updates... look to community for examples on how to solve.
