Hi, 

Is it the package maintainer's job to watch for upstream releases?

How does this Debian package upstream watching works *practically*? 

>From http://wiki.debian.org/debian/watch/ I have the impression that I 
have to come up with a scheme to call the uscan program on regular basis, 
whereas from http://wiki.debian.org/DEHS I have the impression that DEHS 
is doing that. The problem is that it publish to the summary mlist 
(http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/resources.html). 
I.e., to get a notification of a single upstream package update 
notifications, the S/N ratio would be extremely low. 

So, what's the *practically* way to get a notification of a single 
upstream package update? 

Thanks
