vSphere Patches Notifications?

Do patches no longer appear on the vmware web site for vSphere like they did for vi3? As i noticed in update manager there have been a fair few which have been released. does anyone know how to setup a notification for these patches ?

You can look at this link and select your release. 4.0.0 is for vSphere.

Thanks,

VMware *still* has not added vSphere vCenter nor ESX 4.0 to the list of available products on the Patch/Maintenance Alerts Subscription page. vSphere has been released for a full quarter of a year now, and there have already been *critical* patches released for it.
