We've already a bot that mail us the package that need updates. In
most cas if the package isn't updated to the latest version, it can be
an unstable version, compilation is a pain(I don't speak about just one typo,
I speak about a big problem) so it takes times and the other reason is
maybe the program is just goes out. But wer're trying to do the best
to have the most up-to-date version but keeping a product quality is
important too ;-)

Greets,
  Alex.
