However, at the time of your posting that feature was not implemented and only the initial registration was shown. The feature was added 2006-02-23 [1] and deployed same day. Anyway, neither the last user login to the registry nor the last ftp/rsync login touch this field. The intention is to smoothly force repetitive registration as a prerequisite to identify and get rid of obsolete information. Also, we plan to add more features to the registry which in turn requires reregistration. In the end, force to reregister will be increased by denying access to instances that did not reregister for a long time. Recently "a long time" has been increased from 2 to 150 days but this is cosmetic only as currently the ftp server doesn't yet care about information age.
