Package: eclipse-titan
Version: 7.2.0-1.1
Severity: wishlist

I just noticed that even unstable still ships eclipse-titan 7.2, while
upstream has released 8.0.0 in August 2021 and now already 8.1.0 yesterday.

It is my general assumption (I may be wrong) that unstable is tracking upstream
with relatively small delay, so that whenever stabilization of a new debian 
release
happens the then-latest versions of the software are frozen.  If unstable lags
behind upstream significantly, then the versions appearing in stable 
distributions
are going to be even older.

Maybe the new upstream releases were just not noticed?  Or are there known 
problems
why one should avoid upgrading?

Thanks in advance!
