My idea was more about implementing it entirely separately from debbugs just using an email as the final mechanism for web submission (as you suggested). Actually, I was not aware of the soap interface, I was only aware of an ldap interface. As I said, I'm more proposing it on the "frontend" side and I'm needing more knowledge on the "backend" side. Questions: - can you give me a pointer to the details of the SOAP interface? - assuming the entirely separately implementation I had in mind, do you have any other additional requirement on how to interact with debbugs beside mail for submission and SOAP for info retrieval? > In any event, the appropriate place to discuss this sort of thing is > debian-debbugs@lists.debian.org, not really here. Sorry, I posted on d-d just to grasp interested people. I agree that for discussing architectural/implementation details d-debbugs is the right place, but I won't do it now; sure I'll point out in the GSoC proposal that the taker student should discuss there those details. Just let me know if you think some other important requirements should be put in the proposal.
