Bruce,

5.11 is as up to date as it gets, that’s the current release. Ubuntu users can 
also add Debian Testing or unstable as a source; Ubuntu uses the Debian 
packages, The Debian packager is usually on top of releases but seems not to 
have done 5.11 yet.

Getting 3 OSes built along with writing the release notes is quite enough work 
as it is, thank you. I won’t object if someone is willing to step up and be the 
“official” PPA-maker *provided* that that someone *commits* to doing it 
reliably for every release until they find somebody to replace them.

Regards,
John Ralls
