Question about tweaking MSLyncURLandUpdateInfoProvider.py

[jbaker10]

Allister,

I was wondering if you would be open to a PR to very slightly change the MSLyncURLandUpdateInfoProvider.py processor you have written for Lync. The update would just declare one more output variable, display_name, which would give the nicely formatted name of Lync 14.2.x Update as opposed to what we currently have to use, which is just Lync Installer.pkg. This poses an issue for us using the AbsoluteManageExport processor as it compares pkg names to that in the DB, and if it already exists, it assumes the pkg isn't new S.ice the pkg name is always Lync Installer.pkg, it never imports into AbMan. This new output variable would alleviate that by allowing us to rename the pkg in our .absolute recipe to be the %display_name% instead which would then change upon new updates.

I have the code updated, I believe its a total of about 5 new lines. Let me know your thoughts and I can submit a PR.

Thanks!
