here are the contents of the flagging page itself:



> Flag Package Out-Of-Date:    <name>

Use this form to flag the package base <name> and the following packages
out-of-date:

   <name>
Please do not use this form to report bugs. Use the package comments
instead. Enter details on why the package is out-of-date below, preferably
including links to the release announcement or the new release tarball.

also i wonder what sort of personal obsession one would have to keep
refreshing a page for posting the same message over and over? this not
looks any different than stalking
