I was looking at the Fedora 19 repo.

You can always file a bug with RPMFusion with a RFE for a newer version,
but I imagine the reasoning for maintaining a "stable" version (1.0.x)
and not the "bleeding edge" version (1.2.x) is due to F18 being a stable
release.

Actually, the main problem is having the rebuild all the dependencies. RPM Fusion doesn't have the same level of infrastructure as Fedora so there's no koji, Bodhi, buildroot overrides, etc. So big updates usually break things for a short amount of time or require a lot of hand holding.

Also RPM Fusion generally follows the Fedora guidelines, which include when and when not to update, so 1.0.X to 1.1.X would generally be discouraged within a release.
