That's only when they were compiled, I prepared the two installer 
versions in April, it does not say anything about the age of the sources.

I started with a version containing a list of all countries with own 
pool servers, but a lot of these countries only have very few pool 
servers, therefore I decided to go with the regional pools.

Of course you can add your uk pool servers during installation by 
entering their hostnames in the field below the drop down box (I bet you 
already knew that, sorry...).

There is nothing we can do at the moment, we need to get bug #450 fixed. 
Until then, you can stick with my workaround version (1.1397)...
