Sounds reasonable, do you have any links to docs or discussions with winget-pkgs moderators mentioning that this is the the recommended way for maintaining winget manifests?
Sorry, it's my fault. 😥 I can't find such kinds of documentations or discussions posted by Microsoft.
But I found several manifests (such as Oh My Posh) are directly maintained by the package author. They use GitHub Actions like WinGet Releaser, or implement the automation using shell scripts with YamlCreate.ps1, wingetcreate.exe or komac.exe. Most of their pull requests can be merged no more than 24 hours.
For manual maintainence, this may take much longer. Community contributors and volunteers might not notice about the new release. The manifest will keep outdated until somebody open an issue complaining about it, and other create a pull request for manually update it.
@denelon Sorry to ping you here. Is there any official guide for package authors and publishers, which help them automate the manifest maintainence?
