Yes, well, bad.  Why do you want a private conversation about this?  I
assume this was a mistake, and send this answer to the bug again.

I don't know anything about seminar's update cycles, nor whether they
are regularly uploaded to CTAN.  teTeX 3.0 generally includes files from
CTAN up to February 2005.  If people don't upload their stuff, I can't
help.

Moreover, the file seminar.bg3 you sent doesn't contain any copyright
and license statement, and therefore may not be distributed.  Upstream
should correct that, and it would also be nice to know where upstream
is.
