Hello,

Is there some way to search through the SlackBuilds repository and 
identify scripts that require an update?

I am interested in taking on a larger load of SlackBuilds as a 
maintainer.  I am just a bit concerned about how I would go about 
keeping track of when the upstream sources are updated so that I can 
update the SlackBuild.

I am not worried about whether I do or do not use the SlackBuild.  I am 
happy to update / maintain such software.
