Feature freeze for new SANE releases is announced on the sane-announce
mailing list which is quite low traffic. After feature freeze there is
usually two weeks to fix any remaining bugs.

It's complicated enough to keep the backends and the low level stuff
current in one package. It would be a nightmare if they were in single
packages.

If you just want to check one single backend, you can sometimes
download it from the authors website (e.g.
http://www.gjaeger.de/scanner/plustek/). Or just only update the files
you are interested in in CVS.
