Regarding (short) description I have this file generated daily using UDD available for download: http://master.debian.org/~zack/pts/shortdesc.txt . It is used by the PTS, so it is relatively controlled and safe to use. ... but of course you can use UDD in the first place, as data comes from it. The script generating is at http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/*checkout*/qa/trunk/pts/www/bin/retrieve_shortdesc.sh?content-type=text%2Fplain AFAIK, we don't have any long description in UDD yet. You can get the homepage using the SOAP interface of the PTS, but is not suitable for massive retrieval yet (see #507454), and possibly will never be. If you want I can export that somewhere too. For license you have no chance until the machine parseable copyright format get more widespread. > > http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/<source>_<version>.html#binary-<pkg>-copyright > Format-Specification: http://wiki.debian.org/Proposals/CopyrightFormat > is used.
