+Well, it's going to be managed by somebody ;).  So far I'm not

+I assume "extended data" here refers to your tarballs.  What sort of

+whatever encoding you've configured.

+He could just make a list of branches he likes.
+
+Ronny, are you looking to check bug status across several repos on the
+fly, or periodically run something (with cron, etc.) to update a
+static multi-repo summary?
+
+The easiest implementation I can think of would be to keep local
+branches (on whatever computer is hosting your web interface)
+following your favorite repos.
+  proxectX/
+  |-- repoA
+  |-- repoB
+  `-- repoC
+You'd pull upstream changes with a cron job.
+Listing bugs would be something along the lines of
+  projectX$ for repo in *
+            do
+              pushd $repo
+              be list
+	      popd
+            done | sort | uniq
+Then to show bug status you would have something like
+  projectX$ for repo in *
+            do
+              echo $repo
+              pushd $repo
+              be show ${BUGID}
+              popd
+            done
+For a web frontend, you'd want to translate that to python/libbe.
