Old-school, lazy; easier for me.  (But I don't maintain
it there; I publish it there.)

"Up-to-date" has different meanings.  The Emacs-Wiki
mirror is updated periodically (not by me).  It has no
need to check what might have changed in any given file.
"Periodically", regardless of the chosen period, is
different from whenever this or that file might get
updated on the wiki.

If you want the latest of my files, download them
from the wiki.  No one _needs_ to get the latest
versions.  But if someone wants help debugging
something I suggest to start with the latest.

HTH.
