It is most certainly up to the distros to do that.

It really helps, however, when active users on a given distribution to
encourage their distro's developers to do the package upgrade work when
necessary. Nothing happens for free; everything improves when we all
chip in.

{shrug} we release when we have a reason to. When there's a
concentration of enthusiasm and people are fixing bugs, then I'm happy
to do the work to push them out the door. 

We were waiting for a bunch of things to be cleared up before we cut
java-gnome 2.14.1. See bugzilla,
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=java-gnome and follow the
"2.14.1" link.

Nothing has happened for about a week, though so I guess we'll cut a
release this weekend. If you have a bug you want resolved or a patch you
want committed, now is the time.
