Who is manwithgrenade, and why is he marking my pkgs as out of date?

It doesn't appear that he is doing the necessary research.

There's some people who mark netcfg out of date when it isn't. I think I know when I have released a new version! Usually the arch package is uploaded within seconds of the source tarball release, or even before.

A distressing number of losers flag a package out of date when what they really mean is that there's a bug, or even that they want you to change something about the package. ESP is apparently required.
