 ... or similar. One could even add simple markup to color failed packages red and successful builds green. The biggest issue, however, is the one dealing with commenting buildd results and merging new buildd results with these comments.

+It looks like you need no explicit merging if you just put a [[WikiWord]] for the packge in the end of buildd log line.
+
+But if you meant merging new results with old results I know only two ways:
+
+* Put it all in a hash in memory and update from new log
+* Store it in a database and update from the log
+
+For this you need
+
+1. parse buildd log to get date, package name, status
+2. either save into database or append to a text file
+3. process the updated database/text file
+
+Sounds easy to me. What am I missing?
