Ultimate Debian Database

Ultimate Debian Database (UDD) for short is an ongoing effort to create a relational database to encode information about Debian items (packages, bugs, popularity, ...).

It is currently being worked on as [wiki:SummerOfCode2008/UltimateDebianDatabase Google Summer of Code 2008 project].

The ultimate goal is to support Quality Assurance of the Debian Project, by

Providing easy access to the available data
Make often used relations of the data sources available via a web site

As for point 1, see [wiki:?/HowToConnect our Connection ?HowTo] (has yet to be written)

As for point 2, see [ http://udd.debian.net ]

DB schema: [ http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/collab-qa/udd/src/setup-db.sql?view=markup ]
