Hi, I'm working on a patch for the bugs.debian.org css which should help
in seeing more "compact" bug listings wrt the current pages. Overall the
generated HTML pages already have the needed classes which can be used
to implement the change.

However, I'm missing a bit of categorization in the <li> elements used
to list bugs pertaining to the "category". Here is a snippet of the
current HTML:

  <li><a href="bugreport.cgi?bug=96134">#96134: Mail to -submitter
  addresses does not get copied to debian-bugs-dist</a>
  <br>Package: <a class="submitter" 
href="pkgreport.cgi?ordering=normal;archive=0;dist=unstable;repeatmerged=1;package=debbugs">debbugs</a>;
  Severity: <em>minor</em>;
  Reported by: <a class="submitter" 
href="pkgreport.cgi?submitter=mdz%40debian.org">Matt Zimmerman &lt;[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]&gt;</a>;
  Tags: <strong>patch</strong>;
   <strong>6 years and 83 days old</strong>;
    <strong>Modified 2 years and 10 days ago</strong>.

A proof of concept list of the changes that would help my work are:
- wrap the first <a> with a <span class="title"> .. </span> element
- wrap the text from "Package" to "</a>;" within a 
  <span class="package"> .. </span> element
- wrap the text from "Severity" to "</em>;" with a
  <span class="severity"> .. </span> element
- wrap the text from "Tags" to the first ";" with a
  <span class="tags"> .. </span> element
- wrap the text from "<strong>6 years" to the first ";" with a
  <span class="created"> .. </span> element
- wrap the text from "<strong>Modified" to the first "." with a
  <span class="lastmodified"> .. </span> element

Probably some other changes for other bug report parts can be made, I'm
sure you got the idea :-)

I'm willing to provide a patch for this (which I hope will be pretty
easy to implement), but before doing so I just wanted to make sure that
such a change would be welcome, wouldn't it?

Cheers.

PS BTW, where are the sources I would need to patch?
