			<p>If you notice that one of Arch's packages is out of date (ie,
			there is a newer <b>stable</b> release available), then please
			notify us by using the <b>Flag</b> button in the <i>Package
				Details</i> screen. This will notify the maintainer responsible
			for that package so they can update it.</p>

			<p>The message box portion of the flag utility is optional, and
			meant for short messages only. If you need more than 200 characters
			for your message, then file a bug report, email the maintainer
			directly, or send an email to the arch-general mailing list with
			your additional text.</p>

			<p><b>Note:</b> Please do <i>not</i> use this facility if the
			package is broken! Use the
			<a target="_blank" href='http://bugs.archlinux.org'>bugtracker</a> instead.</p>
