  It's still a bit ad hoc as we clear various packages for
  redistribution.  I believe we have a few more packages to release on
  75.

  I would like to get to the RSS feed soon, but there isn't one yet.  

  Generally, Bart or someone will announce new package uploads on this
  alias.  I don't mind if you run refresh (or image-update) a lot--it's
  good to stress out the server.

  You can.  I do.
