Redhat is always out of date with regard to IM.  But then IM had a new
alpha release almost every day, and a beta almost every week.

It is have a very active development cycle due to the interest in the
software.

The best idea is to occasionnaly update the software as you feel you
need, or to take advantage of new developments.

IM Examples generally list the version numbers of new developments
needed for various examples.
