Perhaps packages.d.o should cover security and possibly also
potato-proposed-updates? That way, users of stable could look to see what's
changed without having to wait for the next release or add p-p-u to their
sources.conf.
No doubt some will clamour for the next stable release because they can more
easily see what's in it... ;-)

You always find something in the last place you look, unless it's not there.
