I'm not sure what you mean with those gaze suggestions. I was simply talking 
of a list of last version updates (which can't easily be parsed from 
HISTORY). It wouldn't have to be compared against anything, it could just be 
browsed to see the most neglected ones. I'm not sure if `find -time` can do 
that.

But if UPDATED is going to be scrapped, I've nothing against that. :)
