AFAIK, there's no centralized place where all of that information is
available. Before adding it to the BTS (or PTS) can even be
considered, it needs to be made available, and the methods for
maintainers to modify it made clear.
I'm not averse to linking to a page that provides that information for
each package from either the homepage of the bts or a package report
page, but cluttering the package report pages with unecessary verbiage
gets in the way of people who use the BTS regularly.
