Hi,

How are dart project users normally notified of updates, releases etc?

For other projects we have it is a mailing list for announcements.

I don't believe there's a standardized system; a mailing list sounds like a decent idea (though I don't know that we'd necessarily see a lot of traction).

Normally you would use something like the command line tool "dart pub outdated" (https://dart.dev/tools/pub/cmd/pub-outdated) to see if there are any new versions of packages used in your project. But there is still no mechanism to inform the user directly. Maybe this would be a good idea for a feature request to pub.dev (https://github.com/dart-lang/pub-dev).
