Notify on plugin update

The new plugin mod on community.elgg.org is better in many ways but lacking in others.

Particularly,  since plugin devs can no longer create a new page for their updates, they no longer appear on the Newest Plugins listing.  Perhaps Updated plugins could be introduced?

I don't see a way to subscribe to the plugin page, so that I get notified of changes?

There is no "good" way of finding out when a plugin is updated.... sure i could search the river, search the site, bookmark the plugin page and hit it periodically... but there must be a better way.

Any insight, suggestions?

How do you keep up with plugin updates in this new era of plugins mod?

TIA :-)
