+
+These interfaces provide a means for remote users to access a BE
+repository without bzr or the command line.  As far as users are
+concerned, this exposed repository looks pretty much like a
+centralized bugtracking system (e.g. bugzilla, ...).
+
+However, with BE we have more bug information living off in other
+branches that haven't yet been merged with the exposed repo.  The
+problem is two-fold:
+  1) how to keep up to date within a distributed community.
+  2) how do users find branches/patches that fix bug XYZ.
+
+For (2), I think the best solution at the moment are along the lines
+of my little scripts (discussed in the bug 12c comments).  With the
+addition of the `be diff --dir DIR` option, it's now even easier to
+find more information on bug 565 (or whatever UUID):
+  be/be.wtk$ for repo in ../*; do \
+              if [ $repo == "be.wtk" ]; then continue; fi; \
+              diff=$(be diff --dir $repo --subscribe 565:all); \
+              if [ -n "$diff" ]; then \
+                echo "Changed from $repo:"; echo "$diff"; \
+              fi; \
+             done
+  Changed from ../be.html:
+  New bugs:
+    565:fm: be email-bugs for bug submission from bzr-less users
+  Changed from ../be.trunk:
+  New bugs:
+    565:fm: be email-bugs for bug submission from bzr-less users
+  Changed from ../cherryflavoredbugseverywhere:
+  New bugs:
+    565:fm: be email-bugs for bug submission from bzr-less users
+where the --dir and --subscribe options to `be diff` are new.  If
+people don't like the command line, this would be easy to bundle into
+a web-frontend (CFBE?) if you wanted, with a cron job pulling updates
+into the tracked branches.
+
+I was starting into a solution for (1) when I did this:

+
+The idea was that a dev/user would subscribe to whatever issues they
+wanted to track, and they would get email notifications whenever some
+action affected any of those issues.  These subscriptions would
+percolate through the distributed branches as a result of the usual
+mergers.  For example, my subscription to all changes has made it into
+the trunk branch (see .be/settings).
+
+This subscription mechanism was setup to work through interactive
+public interfaces (my email interface, eventually CFBE, ...), but
+it doesn't work for changes made via the command-line interface,
+so I browsed around a bit and ran across some interesting workflows
+in the bzr documentation
+  doc/developers/HACKING.txt, "Communicating and Coordinating"
+which points out the following plugins
+  * email (http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/plugins/en/email-plugin.html)
+  * dbus (http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/plugins/en/dbus-plugin.html)
+which send automatic notification messages after commits, etc.  If
+people want this sort of functionality, it would be easy enough to rig
+a hook for `be commit' that sent a diff email to subscribers, which
+could include be-devel.
