Hi. The package python-btsutils has been recently brought to my attention (Thanks zack). It implements a general python API for the DBTS.
I think that the Debian bts querying part of bts-link (bts/interfaces.py) could be replaced somehow by using an (improved) btsutils which could use a mirror of the BTS database. I've started some bits to reuse current bts-link's code to extend btsutils, at : http://picoforge.int-evry.fr/websvn/listing.php?repname=helios_wp3&path=/trunk/python/ (by also changing some bits in bts-link... see : http://www-public.it-sudparis.eu/~berger_o/git/bts-link.git/) I've also filed a wishlist on python-btsutils for that : #508812 The idea is to try and merge in a distinct common library as much of the python client interfaces of the BTS as possible. It would eventually support many interfaces of the BTS : SOAP, WEB, ldap, spool files,... Several tools could then use the same lib : bts-link, bug-triage, etc. Any comments welcome.
