SUGGESTION: List the updated extensions in New Extensions
Joomla! Extensions Directory is my No. 1 favourit resource for 3rd party add-ons. I sadly noticed that only those extensions are added to the New Extensions list, which never had been listed in the directory. It would be great to publish the updated extensions here as well, even because only this site has its RSS feed, by which the users would follow up the updated releases in their aggregators.

You can add your extensions yourself. That was the idea of the whole thing. The team prepares the site to be launched and after that, the developers maintain it.

As I see, some extensions are outdated, the updated ones were not published in RSS

Hi LocALiceR,
Your right. Only new extensions are listed in the RSS feed.
The editors have discussed this some time ago, and this might be a feature sometime.
At the moment its not possible.
Thanks for the feedback though. Any incoming suggestion will be evaluated, and will help for future improvement

ot2sen,
thank you for confirming my noticement.
I myself the editor of a small national software library of desktop applications. I am collecting the news via the RSS feeds of ca. 50 software libraries. The updates are always listed with the new arrivals.
Due to security it would be very important for the updated extensions to be listed in the new arrivals as well.
Currently it is easier to follow up the corrections on Joomla!Forge.
