Because it has anything anyone with an account decides to throw at it. I
intentionally don't do any checks other than
- packages need to compile
- if they contain potential security leaks (e.g. setuid or setgid stuff,
  calls to rm and friends in %post, ..., ...), they have to be approved
  manually before they're publically downloadable

Anything that matches those two is made available (but can be removed
later, and I'm emailed about it, so I'll remove the package and kill the
uploader if someone submits windows2000-0.1.i386.rpm or the likes ;) )

I guess it's a newer version or something (but hell will freeze over
before I touch *emacs ;) ).
