I think this will really take much time. See how long the Firefox update takes,
and that's just from 4.0.1 to 5.0.1. This is the time needed to do proper quality assurance,
so there are no mistakes like in Mandriva, when localizations were missing, packaged
plugins didn't work as they were forgotten to be updated, and all such stuff.

Even Mandriva has only 3.1.11 in cooker, and they have people who are paid
and working full-time on such things.
