updating a private channel in my account?

Maybe it's lack of sleep or something, but the button marked "new version" on my private channels list is always grayed out; can someone explain the process of updating an existing private channel - as far as I can tell, there's no way to do that.
Thanks

it's explained in one of the developer docs. working from memory... the "new version" button has something to do with public channels. to update a private channel, use the "edit" button. it confused the hell out of me too the first time around.

Re: updating a private channel in my account?

Thanks; looks like I should have RTFM'd
However, I still don't see a mechanism to update the code for a private channel in the edit section. Looks like it needs to be deleted first and resubmitted which is a drag, and leaves an orphaned private channel on my development Roku box, n'est pas?

Just hit the "Edit" button, then upload a new .pkg
