When I look at that page and choose the "all messages with excerpted  
text" link, I get what appears reasonably up-to-date entries compared  
to what I get in my mail subscription. Have you considered the  
possibility that it is not Gmane which is "without update" but rather  
your knowledge of how to correctly use your browser that needs  
updating?  Generally there is some keystroke or button combination  
that forces a a browser reloading of a webpage.

Gmane may be a couple of hours behind but not usually several days.
