 The information given at http://wiki.sagemath.org/Sage_Spkg_Tracking is
 fairly out of date (and incomplete).

 Perhaps we could add updating this page to the
 [http://wiki.sagemath.org/devel/ReleaseManagement release manager's
 task/check list] (in case a new release includes updated spkgs).

 I also consider adding a column "Upcoming" which people creating/updating
 spkgs can fill with the next version and, if appropriate, a link to the
 corresponding ticket. An alternative is to add a second ''row'' for each
 upcoming spkg, just below the main row for that package, i.e. its current
 version within Sage.

 Another useful column would be something like "Valid of", containing the
 date and/or Sage version each entry (row) has been updated last.

 The column "Latest stable (upstream) release" is subject to change more or
 less frequently, independent of Sage releases; so if we keep it, it should
 perhaps continually be updated by the spkg maintainers, or at least carry
 a date, indicating when this information was entered.
