I use VIM for code development and lot of things. I see that there are lot of scripts, configurations shared at vim.org/scripts, also some at github. Time to time I would like to check which one of the scripts used by me were improved. This would need either manual checking of the scripts, but I am too lazy to do that. Writing some code to do the checking and upgrading is also an option, but I am not sure whether there is any agreement what all script contributors always follow. I would like to have a upgrader for these scripts. Is there any solution, or any practice for maintaining the VIM scripts?

    I use pathogen.vim to make updating scripts stored on github trivial. Put pathogen.vim in .vim/autoload and add call pathogen#runtime_append_all_bundles() into your .vimrc file to set up pathogen. Then in .vim/bundle, I git clone [vim plugin], and updating is as simple as a git pull in the appropriate directories.
