Really at the end of the day this isn't really that big of a deal. It's relatively easy to update the config in most of the projects "tox -egenconfig" see my posting back in May [1]. For all the more often this should happen I'm not sure why we can't have enough contributors that are just pro-active enough to "fix it up" when they see it falls out of date.
