Thoughts
So let me talk through this. Wbond is paid by SublimeHQ to host package control. No one else can host a different version of package
control because it wouldn't have the endorsement (in Sublime Text itself) or the financial backing of SublimeHQ covering hosting costs. Wbond doesn't have the time to manage updates to Package Control. Wbond is unwilling to allow anyone else to maintain updates to Package Control while he is hosting it. All reasonable positions on their own, but together they mean that Package Control cannot receive updates.
