Well, to PTS end it is enough to have a file containing the needed information to decide whether or not the link should be put. If to you it's easy to generate a list of vulnerabilities affecting the various packages, with information whether they are resolved or not that's fine for the PTS. In addition, given that you are asking for adding the link, you're probably the most titled guys to know which kind of information are needed to decide whether or not to add the link :-) > > The PTS usually only provides some link when there's something > > intesresting to watch behind the link. > The drawback is that the link only appears after the next PTS update. > (We could AJAX to create the link. 8-P) Patches welcome :-P but anyhow that is totally unrelated with the point above, even with AJAX you would need to decide whether or not to add the link. You can only gain that you can do a query on a per-package resource to check whether it should be added (besides of course being more up to date, but that was not the topic of discussion here).
