On Debian, you could see the latest packages available to you by
issuing 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get upgrade -u'. Other distros may
have similar systems, some for subscribtion and some are free.
Also, Ximian's Red-Carpet (www.ximian.com) will notify you and install
various GNOME updates (it would notify you only if you run it though).

releases'.

If it's on Freshmeat, you can subscribe to it.
