Fair enough. I'd definitely prefer updated to removed. But I do worry about
distributing obsolete versions of software whose homepages make strong
security claims that may no longer be justified in older versions. I'm
particularly concerned about this as it applies to communications apps and
their dependencies.

OK. I just found out that two time-consuming tasks have been taken off my
plate, so I may be able to carve out some time for learning about backporting
during the week.
