Just because they pull *security* updates automatically doesn't make
them fully synced with our releases. Not every minor release becomes a
security update in Ubuntu.
Also, I'd expect that a community-endorsed packaging also follows new
major releases. I don't know if we have that commitment here.
Perhaps there should be a second heading or category or page for
appliances, pre-integrated environments and live CDs, and they are
allowed to have a more relaxed release schedule.
