This now says it is unmaintained:

http://upstream.rosalinux.ru/

"Unfortunately, we cannot support the service anymore. Sorry for
inconvenience. The suitable replacement for this tool will be available
at github.com/lvc soon. ROSA Laboratory, 21 July 2015. "

The database itself says "has been generated on 2014-09-04"... so is
probably not a good way forward.

Indeed.

I am not sure how that helps.

It should be replaced with UDD, because basically it is UDD view.

Maybe?

So what's the solution here?

Should we bug duck people to implement this?

UDD seems to help here, but it does much more than this...

I am using the latter now, in combination with feed2imap:

- name: Debian todo
  url: https://udd.debian.org/dmd/?email1=anarcat%40debian.org&email2=&email3=&packages=&ignpackages=&format=rss#todo
  target: [ *target, debian-udd-todo ]

It looks like the DEHS functionality can be easily reimplemented with simple
Python app and a uptodate replica of UDD database. The DEHS structure:

- Pkgs without watch file
- Pkgs not in sync with upstream
- Pkgs with watch file but no upstream version checkable
- DEHS statistics
  - with/without watch diagram
  - working/bogus/empty watch
  - daily graphs
    - with
    - without
    - failed
    - uptodate packages
