My WSUS last sync on 05/12/2009 at around 4 am shows that KB951847 updates
(Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and .NET Framework 3.5 Family
Update) expired. They're automatically declined as well.

I have never approved nor declined those updates since they were released.
They are untouched since the release date. Did MS finally did something to
cause this to happen?

Ah shoot!... I thought I was on
microsoft.public.windows.server.update_services group.

Crossposted my own reply the right group.

Sorry.

New revisions of these packages were released on Tuesday, May 12th, and were
announced by the WSUS Product Team in their blog last week. The expiration
of the previous packages is intentional, happens automatically when new
revisions are published, and has absolutely nothing to do with whether they
were approved or not.

They were automatically declined because you have the option "Auto-decline
expired updates" enabled.

If you had previously approved them, the new revisions would also be
approved.
