Typical. I decide to wait until Friday to post about this and bang!
Saturday morning the update shows up on this site. Sigh!

Thanks for the answer to my question. It was not, "Why isn't Rayan doing
his (voluntary) job?" but, "Why have I not seen the updates?".  The
culprit is rutgers (my auto path rebuild script will only accept
official postings - maybe I'll have to broaden that definition a little ;-))
