New map packages offered on Naviextras show a 6 to 8 month old date?

AW: The NNG / Naviextras date information shown on new map package offerings follows a date convention set by OEM Automotive customers, which refers to the publication date of the raw digital map data. The raw data of single countries is assembled, compiled and subject to extensive testing and post-processing. This process takes several months of time, before a new package is ready for release to consumers.

Important for purchase and use of a map package: The purchase packages offered on Naviextras always include the latest digital map data available from TomTom or other providers.
