Sourceforge, where we host our downloads, already provides this feature,
although it appears it does require an account at Sourceforge.  This may make
the feature less desirable for a sizable chunk of our users.

If you go to http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=235 and look
at the section which shows "Latest File Releases", you will see both GTK+ for
Windows and Pidgin listed here with several pieces of information, including an
icon that when clicked allows you to "monitor" the packages and be notified when
new versions are released.
