As a first post, here's a reminder of a feature suggestion Bruno sent to me, though I'm not sure how to implement it as tlmgr doesn't give this in the output of 'tlmgr update --list' as far as I can tell.

Begin forwarded message:

> when running side-by-side TLU and "tlmgr --gui" (as in the attached screenshot), a nice touch in the latter, which I hadn't noticed before, is that it displays sometimes the "CTAN package version" (in parentheses) in addition to the "TeX Live package version". That allows, for example, to check whether a new TeX Live package is just some minute update in a support file invisible to the user, or a genuine update to the CTAN package (for example, a new version of fontspec).
