How to report new version of an unsupported package in AUR?

Is there a process for reporting a new version of an unsupported package in AUR?

Sorry, I was being ambiguous. The package in the AUR is outdated, there is a newer version available. I want to notify the maintainer of this.

I've splitted from the AUR guide thread.

Flag the package out-of-date. You can also leave a comment so the user gets an email notification (if he has enabled the notification button). If the package has been oudated for a long time, you can email the maintainer.

Ok....I forgot to log in. I knew about the flag out-of-date thingy but I thought it was for official packages only.
