One of the bots scraping information from the tracker HTML pages is actually a script that I manually run once a day (or less)... :-/ It just requests three tracker pages and does everything else locally, hence I hope it does not cause any significant overload. I use it to update a graphical plot of the number of open vulnerabilities (in unstable, testing, and stable) versus time. I tried to propose its integration into the tracker in the past, but apparently there was not enough interest, so I went on running it by myself. Bye and thanks again for fixing the tracker proxy error issue! -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/ fsck is a four letter word... ..................................................... Francesco Poli .
