[tex-live] Deployment of TL 2018 (on multiple computers): release or updated?

[Zdenek Wagner]

Hi,

if you have all computers on LAN and have a reliable Linux server, you can
install TL will all platforms you need and share the TEXMF trees. You can
thus have just one instance used by all Linux and Windows computers and
update only one computer.
