can we defer this discussion to debconf if you are planning to attend ?
Integrating the dose results into the tracker is on my agenda for debconf.
Of course I can provide output in any reasonable format that is convenient
for the tracker or udd, I just didn't have the time yet to look into this.
In what concerns readability of explanations: repeating the short
explanation on the package page as pabs suggested is a good idea,
I will do that. Besides, Josch is right in that conciseness was a concern.
And I tried to stick to pure html and avoid creating an image file for
each individual case, since we have each day literally thousands of
individuals reports.
Cheers -Ralf.
