Today while I was updating my Firefox extensions, it occurred to me that this would be some really nice functionality to have in a CMS. What if every time an admin logged in or ran a "Check For Updates" module, he'd get a list of his active modules with lower version numbers that what's currently available in CVS? Maybe the list has a link to each module's project page for immediate review and download.
The module itself sounds like it would be relatively simple: parse the version number out of each of the module files and compare them against a master list of current versions.
Check issues #48580 and #48582 and see if they will give you something close to what you want. We've got a design, we just need to implement it (for 4.8+). ..chrisxj
