There must be a misunderstanding. The idea of this feature is to warn people about old versions of other programs that Emacs version M.N won't work with. (We can assume that new versions of those programs will be fixed to work with the latest Emacs.) So this list is fixed for any given Emacs version. The idea is to release it in Emacs.
