But a generic format for a specialized use case seems overkill.
can we defer this discussion to debconf if you are planning to attend ? Integrating the dose results into the tracker is on my agenda for debconf. Of course I can provide output in any reasonable format that is convenient for the tracker or udd, I just didn't have the time yet to look into this. In what concerns readability of explanations: repeating the short explanation on the package page as pabs suggested is a good idea, I will do that. Besides, Josch is right in that conciseness was a concern. And I tried to stick to pure html and avoid creating an image file for each individual case, since we have each day literally thousands of individuals reports.
