 If you notice something wrong, please let me know, but please also tell
 me what the correct URL is that I can use to determine the most recent
 released version of the package.

I recently stumbled over nano, BLFS has 2.3.2 which is actually a devel 
release. 2.2.6 is the latest stable.

Release scheme seems to be even=stable, odd=devel
Version should be retrievable from here http://www.nano-editor.org/
With a release history (for reference) here 
http://www.nano-editor.org/overview.php

PS: I do realise that nano is not a mission-critical package, but while 
at it ...

PPS: thanks for the work you all put in (B)LFS, much appreciated!

   Alternatively, perhaps people here don't care about security ?  Or
 maybe there is some other alternative which I'm overlooking ?

Subscribing to announce mailing lists works for some packages.
For example the openssl developers are pretty quick to release a new 
version containing a fix.
