I just registered; I'm jwm-guest (I presume the -guest suffix is for
non-DDs?)

I've updated the code to support fetching /var/lib/dpkg/status via SSH; it's
parsing it and updating the existing SQL tables with the package
information. I'm starting to ready it for "release" - hopefully I'll have
some basic packaging ready in a week or two.

The RDF feed from the Security Team doesn't have fields for version numbers,
so right now, I'm just parsing the package name from the DSA title and
flagging any out-of-date packages with that name as DSA-affected.
Eventually, it would be nice to contact the Security Team to see if they
could add version numbers as RDF fields.
