Vera, Liberation etc continues to get updates fairly frequently. Not sure what the complaint is all about. More details please.

You can check their glyph coverage in Fontmatrix or Fontaine and see for yourself.
Example: LiberationSans-Regular.ttf today - 655 character count. LiberationSans-Regular.ttf 1.03.90 from 2008 (oldest available package at https://fedorahosted.org/releases/l/i/liberation-fonts/) - 662.
Vera today: 256. Vera in 2003 (via http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/ttf-bitstream-vera...): 256.

Liberation does have a increase. It is open for contributions. Instead of Vera, look at Dejavu. Noone uses Vera anymore.
