The release of Firefox 3 got me to thinking again about a mystery that I've had for awhile. I know that Xandros is typically slower than distros like Ubuntu at making updates available, but every time I check for updates in XN it looks like it doesn't know about anything past August 16, 2007. At least that's what is listed on the News page of XN.

What's going on that my system isn't seeing updates as available? Surely there have been updates since August 2007!
