There is a page that lists candidates for DTSA (Debian Testing
Security Announcements), which aren't actually done anymore, but
something like that would be very useful for DSA and DLA candidates.
Then the separate text files could go away, and we can just use
<no-dsa> in the CVE list to keep those pages up to date.

Best wishes,
