I picked a bad time to start reading debian-devel again it
seems..

Since my name is mentioned I'd better clarify: I wrote
some rexx scripts a long while ago to massage wanna-build
output so the m68k admins could better see which
packages they had and which were stuck, etc.  It's just
http://buildd.debian.org/stats/m68k-all.txt in a different
format.

When I stopped running the scripts on crest.d.o because it
bogged the machine down too much, Ingo offered to host them
(thanks Ingo).  Generating the stats for all arches was a
config item change.

I'd prefer that the scripts be rewritten in a more
mainstream language like Python, Perl, Ruby and hope that
Ingo and friends are doing that as part of their project.
