Attempting to update apache to a newer version would likely break it, I would think. Updating PHP may break some of the available apps. Not sure on the other packages.
In the future we might do some updates that may be relevant to what you are after, but I don't have a timeline on that. Certainly not in the imminent future.

I think you mis-understood,
You load the VM onto your PC, and then use the VM to test your your updates. Then you have assurance that they work as expected when you install them on the real machine.
Ooops ... yep misunderstood that.
I suspect that a project to do that (for me) may be a bit too much work at the present time ... have just discovered that my WordPress problem is only 'half fixed' so am returning to that.
Thanks guys, I understand the concepts, but I will live with the 'out of date' versions for the time being.
I would still like an answer about the future ReadyNAS OS release.
