Every 11.x gets the same packages. They're built on the lowest
supported version (11.1 here), but 11.2 and 11.1 pkg users get the
same packages.

Quarterly is NOT outdated. It is specifically and intentionally not
latest-and-greatest. Whatever new pkg you're talking about, the whole
point is that it is tested for ~3 mo in head before it arrives in
quarterly. If you don't like it, you switch to head. That's what it's
there for.
