+Gianluca is clearly thinking about a static report:

+I think truly interactive frontends like Steve's working on need to be
+build on top of libbe directly, since they'll need to make lots of
+small changes to the database, and it's to slow to be reloading the
+database for every change.  Static dumps like my mbox or Gianluca's
+html could just parse the xml output of `be list' and other be
+commands.
+
+There should also be an xml import for `be new' and `be comment' so
+you could import new bugs/comments from whatever format after writing
+a whatever->xml converter.  This would allow you to email new bugs and
+comments to the database (e.g. via some procmail-spawned
+be-parse-email script) which would give you some level of
+interactivity, but you'd have to regenerate your mbox to see your new
+comments in your mail reader.
+
+I think interactive use that gives you live-updates in your mail
+reader isn't worth the trouble, since you'd need to teach BE imap or
+smtp+mbox-locking.  Hmm, maybe it smtp+mbox-locking wouldn't be so bad,
+but that would be a distinct frontend project like Steve's, not part
+of the becommands.
