Dear Fiji/ImageJ users,

It has been brought to my attention that my wording was not quite clear,
and it did not come over as funny despite all my good intentions. So,
please, let me try again to describe what I believe to be the importance
of personal update sites being available to every Fiji/ImageJ user:

From now on ImageJ plugins or macros can be shared with the scientific
community regardless of their publication status through a personal update
site that ensures unambiguous crediting of the work.

Personal update sites are not only a very convenient way to increase the
impact of your work (by making not only the results but also the tools of
your research available to other scientists -- and therefore increase the
citability of your publications), but they make it easy to update the
macros and plugins with new and improved versions, too.
