In general, there's <https://repology.org/project/zsh/versions>, but
I don't think we should rely on it.  If we have a question to downstream
maintainers, we should ask it on an appropriate mailing list — e.g.,
-workers@, or workers@ with an appropriate subject prefix/tag, or as
a drive-by mention in the next email to announce@.

In this specific case, however, which downstreams actually ship
a recommended zshrc?  I suspect few do, so we can contact them directly.
For Debian, we should address our questions to pkg-zsh-devel
alioth-lists.debian.net.  (Those already familiar with bugs.debian.org
incantations may prefer to create a bug with X-Debbugs-Cc instead.)

Cheers,

Daniel
