Dave, Bryce, I finally got around to opening the 3.10 universe to
edits.  I'll leave it open until the universe is finalized, so that
people can post updates more quickly than I can manage.  I am just
barely finding enough time to keep the machinery working and to do
final checkups at the end.

To post updates, use the "package universe editor".  The first time
you open it you must create an account.  After that, click on an
existing package and do "create new version".  The tool will prompt
you for any info it needs.

To the group in general: realize that anyone can become a maintainer
for a universes entry, not just me or the original authors.  If your
favorite package is out of date in the 3.10 universe, then go ahead
and post an update and name yourself as the "maintainer".  In the
unlikely event two people scramble to maintain the same package, just
email each other and/or me and we'll work it out.
