You need to install a feed reader (`eix -C net-news`) or a browser add-on to subscribe to them. If a project has no tagged releases, follow new commits feed instead. If a project is not hosted on any forges and has no feeds on its website, subscribe to its announce mailing list. + +Also you can use [Repology](https://repology.org/projects/?inrepo=gentoo_ovl_guru&outdated=on) to view all outdated packages in GURU. + - #### [GLEP 63](https://www.gentoo.org/glep/glep-0063.html) says I should use a @gentoo.org email address for signing off, do I need an @gentoo.org email address to contribute to GURU? No, you do not need an @gentoo.org email address to contribute to GURU, these email addresses are for Gentoo developers only. Instead use whichever email address you want to receive bug mail and other communications on. If you're also a [proxy-maintainer](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Proxy_Maintainers) please use the same email address. |
