Announce: Bundle Buggy

Hi all,

In an effort to improve our tracking of merge requests, I've written
Bundle Buggy.  It's a web app that watches the mailing list for merge
requests and logs them.  It's partially inspired by Patchwork
<http://ozlabs.org/~jk/projects/patchwork/>

Here it is:

http://bundlebuggy.aaronbentley.com

The source is here:
http://code.aaronbentley.com/BundleBuggy/
It's a TurboGears project.  (I'll get GPL notices in there soon.)

It provides UI for voting, and can autodetect when a bundle has been
merged or superseded.  It will notify the list when a new request comes
in, and when people vote.

(For now, voting is restricted to core devs, i.e. those whose votes can
cause a merge to be approved.  If others wish to vote, we can revisit that.)

It is less smart about patches, and needs to be told when they're merged
or superseded.

I've imported the last 45 days' worth of requests, because beyond that
it's very hard to remember what has and hasn't been merged.  If you have
an outstanding merge request older than that, please resend it to the
list to remind us.

John Meinel and Martin have been testing it for me (thanks, guys!), and
I believe it's already helped us get a bunch of merge requests processed
that might otherwise have been forgotten.  I believe it's now ready to
go into production for real.

John, Robert, Andrew, Wouter, Jelmer and Alexander, can you please send
me the passwords you'd like to use?

Aaron
