The repository dictionary doesn't have the data that I'm interested in.

Yes, the entries in "releases" must be predictable. I must be able to
lookup issue_data['releases']['squeeze']['status'] and have the status in
squeeze no matter what sub-release has the latest version.

I also noticed that we have nowhere data that says that an
issue is <undetermined>... maybe those issues should be entirely dropped?

I don't understand why we have that status in the first place.

But my first try at identifying issues open in squeeze (i.e. an improved
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/status/release/oldstable) led
me to showing many such issues... and I want to filter them out.

Cheers,
