Actually this is normal. I do same for muliple projects for openSUSE and I only participate in few of them. Usually you only package newest version and that's it. Sometimes you fix bugs and try to get them imported in upstream as soon as possible to reduce maintenance overhead. In a very few cases packaging is like branching (expecially if upstream has strange opinions about how bugs should be handled or what should be defined as bug).
