So does this mean any version of tor is safe to use as long as it is not considered “obsolete”? Thanks.

Hello,
A few days ago, I upgraded my version of tor from 0.3.3.9 to tor 0.3.4.8. I noticed, however, that tor does not tell me when a new version is available. But in the past when I was a few versions behind, it popped up with a message saying “WARNING: this version of tor is out of date or no longer recommended.”
So, I am just wondering, why is it that the tor software warns when the current version is “no longer recommended” but does not warn when an update is available?
Tor only warns about obsolete versions.
It doesn't warn when there is a new release or "new in series" version available.
