contacting fedora project about updating packages

In most Linux distributions, the packages lag behind releases by 1 version 
release or 2.
The process of vetting, testing, and integrating is time consuming, and 
that is why they lag behind...
Feel free to post to them, but if any one answers you, they might not be 
as understanding as we are...
Fedora is a community project, so you might consider contributing time for 
docs etcetra to make it easier to keep up with the demand for current 
packages.

Hope this information helps.
