Koen,

Paul is right, and you also have a good point about becoming a 
maintainer. Currently as you have seen, its mostly the Yocto Team doing 
updates with some other fixes and updates coming from the community and 
that these updates are when a team member goes through and does a load 
of them at once.

If you would like to update a recipe, feel free to send tested patches. 
Moving forward, I will propose a process to the OE-Core TSC that would 
include some basic requirements of maintainership, so things don't drift 
into staleness.

Thanks
	Sau!
