Man page for a utility doesn't change unless more command line options are
added which is pretty rare for a graphical utility.  Gnote development
hasn't stopped and gets various bug fixes and other incremental updates. If
you want to keep track of changes, refer to

http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnote/log/

There are two upstream developers and one of them is a Fedora developer,
Debarishi Ray and afaik the other is not a Fedora developer.  I didn't say
sync wasn't important.  I said it is important for some users.  If you
prefer to use Tomboy, feel free to.  This discussion doesn't seem to have
much of a point.
