The last patch for RPID is marked for 1.4.23.1 (2/10/09) :
https://issues.asterisk.org/file_download.php?file_id=21601&type=bug

I've been running it on 1.4.23.1 since Feb.

I just did an upgrade to 1.4.26.2 and their are rpid options showing in 
the sip peer info in the CLI (though I haven't tried to use it yet), so I 
expect that the reason there are no patches past 1.4.23.2 is that it has 
already been included in the release branch.
