The latest version uploaded are now 2006-02-01 for the patched version and 2006-01-31 for the unpatched version.

But, what about ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/ ?
Why are the timestamps of files are still */*/2004 ?

Because that's how old the actual Official released versions are.

ALL the more recent versions are NOT released...
They are build from CVS and are pre-release / alpha / beta software.

That said, for me, they are quite stable and I used them very day.

Is there any other place where native emacs and emacs w32 is being placed ?
For native emacs - emacs-21.4a.tar.gz, it is 2/17/2005 ?
Why is this happening ?

I don't think there has every been an "official" release of
version 21.4a for windows..

I have long since moved onto the bleeding edge.
