An update! You can already do: git clone git://git.debian.org/git/reproducible/notes.git to access the database, which may contain useful hints in packages.yml. Furthermore, the fine hackers on #reproducible-builds on irc.oftc.net said they’re happy to give accounts to people who ask. So you can go to alioth.debian.org, ask for an account, and then click on “Request to join” at <https://alioth.debian.org/projects/reproducible>. However, note that the database hasn’t been converted yet to the distro-independent format that we discussed at the meeting. This will happen probably sometime in January. Until then it probably doesn’t make much sense for us to modify it. Ludo’.
