Pimp needs a way to update itself. The version number in the
database is good enough for backward compatibility (i.e. a newer
pimp that happens upon an older database) but not for updating, I 
think (an older pimp that comes across a database that is too new).

A possible solution would be analogous to what Apple does with 
Software Update: encode the pimp version number in the URL of the 
database, and when pimp is updated the old database is replaced by 
one that only offers one choice: upgrade pimp.
