Update Problem with Bliss on Vortexbox

I noticed that bliss is not updated to the latest version when using the update button or doing it with yum update. The latest version in the repo is 20120228 and in the meantime 2 updates were available.

I've found how the update can be done manually: http://vortexbox.org/threads/3619-Bliss-Version-Update

With a little bit more explaination:

When you visit the download page, you will see a package for Vortexbox. Click on it.

On the following page you see the download link.
http://www.blisshq.com/downloads/rpm/noarch/bliss-20120403-1.noarch.rpm

With the command "wget" you can download files via commandline. So type in to the CLI
wget http://www.blisshq.com/downloads/rpm/noarch/bliss-20120403-1.noarch.rpm


With yum localinstall you can install downloaded rpm files
yum localinstall bliss-20120403-1.noarch.rpm
