That still seems like a major issue, because I and probably quite a few other people rely on the security page to decide when to look into upgrading.

I hope there is some rationale for why the security fixes in later releases were not serious enough to warrant an advisory on the security page, rather than it just being an oversight.

Then you should definitely take the task upon yourself in order to help everyone. A great chance to contribute. It's a wiki after all.

Are you giving them money?

It seems to be a mostly volunteer driven project.

Proprietary SoC vendors use an fork of a very old version of the software so they're not invested.

Why not try engaging and see if you can help them automate advisories based on their issue tracker / got activity?

Because your attitude comes off as entitlement.

Your attitude comes off as dismissive and condescending while gaslighting a perfectly valid criticism. Why not recognize that the commentor is providing feedback, even if not directly, and is delivering it in a forum context which we (HN visitors) actually read? The notion that every bit of feedback like this shoud be replaced with a FOSS contribution is profoundly entitled on your part.
