As always I am enormously thankful for all the efforts and time spent by
the entire arch team keeping arch active and live and the best dang
distro available (imho).
That said, and to be helpful, periodically I create a little list of out
of date packages, some more than others and many didn't make the cut,
and it's entirely my view of priorities :)
Thank you again.

[2] there are lots of haskell packages using this
[3] should this be removed?

Version Age = days between arch version and latest version
Latest Age = days from the latest version through today
Special mention
* gnupg 2.3.8
we're up to date on legacy version (2.2.40) but over a year out of
date vs current 2.3. Believe we are still awaiting an update of some
arch (dev) keys - Any news on this yet?
* openssl 3.0.x
great to see that builds are underway!!
* python 3.11
was only released last week and already builds are underway - that's
pretty awesome thank you.
