I changed my mind, and I'd like to kindly accept your offer.

As of know, I'm testing it on merkel, just to have it deployed on a
Debian box. The important thing (i'm aware up to know) is that the
targetted machine has:

- structure /org/bugs.debian.org/spool/db-h/ as merkel (but since it's
bugs-mirror, I think on bugs.d.o I'll find the same layout)
- mta (for DSA joy :) but I think bugs.d.o has one for sure).

The current tests are run by hand, just to catch all those corner
cases/situations we'd like to handle.

Don, if you're ok, I think the current git repo and alioth mls can be
kept even in future; maybe a pseudo-package (as MadCoder suggested)
can be helpful to track feat-requests/bugs notifications.

Other ideas will be expressed as soon as they'll come :)

Cheers,
