I've started working on this, though I won't finish before the winter break.
I've pushed my personal git repo to alioth, modulo the apparent 6 hour symlink
cronjob[*]

    git clone git://git.debian.org/users/barry/reportbug.git

on the bug714896 branch.  However, python-reportbug requires python-debianbts
be ported, as there currently is only a Python 2 version of that available.
The request for that is in bug 732644.

Cheers,
-Barry

P.S. We'll have to get rid of what appears to be the long deprecated CGI
parsing bit because there's no sgmllib module in Python 3 and given the
comments in the code, it doesn't seem worth trying to port that to some other
library.

[*] Hopefully the wiki directions are still current and I followed them
correctly.
