I've started looking at this.

My goal is essentially to port the existing functionality from the
packages.qa.debian.org to tracker.debian.org, but in a way that it could be
extended later.

I plan to use python-rdflib quite extensively in this.

I'll admit I don't share your views on linkage with upstream/downstream, but
that doesn't mean I won't consider these during the implementation. My main
motivation is to have some easily parseable outputs in a known format for
tools to look at Debian package metadata. I plan to have outputs in RDF/XML,
Turtle and JSON-LD.

If you're not currently looking at this, I can just get going, and I'll
probe you when I get stuck.

Thanks for your work on packages.qa.debian.org, I hope my work can live up
to the same standards for tracker.debian.org.

Iain.
