[*] pimp can update itself, it tries to import a module "pimp_update", 
and if it exists things from pimp_update will override things from pimp 
itself. So if there are critical fixes we simply put out a new version. 
The current version (0.3) would then point to a database that offers 
one choice only: update pimp itself. Of course, none of this has been 
tested, but when we need it it will turn out to magically work without 
any debugging:-)
