"Maxima ports" page on Sourceforge



O
n the Maxima ports page on
Sourceforge<http://maxima.sourceforge.net/ports.html>;,
there is a list of ports to Windows, GNU, etc. where the most recent
version of Maxima is between 5.9 and 5.16.

What is the point of this page, when the Sourceforge download
page<http://sourceforge.net/projects/maxima/files/>has version 5.30 on
Mac and Linux, and 5.28 on Windows?

For that matter, why is the Windows version (which according to Sourceforge
is downloaded about 8x more often than Mac and Linux together)
two versions behind Mac and Linux
?
