it's nice to have recent software, but not for every price, you should 
also consider the time users spend to solve problems left and right in 
your calculations if something is worth to be included or better wait

frankly if i have the decision of something brand new with troubles or 
something outdated doing it's daily job the decision is easy and 
ressources are not only upstream and on the distribution side

ressources are also on the users side because they lose will and energy 
of testing and writing bugreports if they are too much to track
