$ cat check-koma.sh
#!/bin/bash
komadl=`mktemp`
wget -q -O - "http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4307" > $komadl
if grep -q '404 File Not Found' $komadl ; then
	echo "KOMA download page not found!"
	exit 1
fi
release=""
datum=""
while read line; do
	if [[ "$line" =~ release_id=[0-9]*\"\>([^\<]*)\< ]]; then
		release=${BASH_REMATCH[1]}
	fi
	if [[ "$line" =~ koma-script-([-0-9]*)-bin ]]; then
		datum=${BASH_REMATCH[1]}
	fi
	if [ -n "$release" ] && [ -n "$datum" ] ; then
		break
	fi
done < <(cat $komadl)
rm -f $komadl
echo "Current version: $release, date $datum"

$ bash check-koma.sh
Current version: 3.00, date 2008-11-03

Maybe one wants to add another 10 lines that updates automatically to
CTAN.

Best wishes
