Hi Michael

Desirable perhaps not, but it is how the current implementation works: 
data/DSA/list is used as the canonical list of DSA's that have been released, 
and these are mapped to their data/CVE/list counterparts. Because these 
issues have no CVE names assigned yet, we have nothing to cross reference 
them from data/DSA/list.

I'm not sure how a better implementation would look like, since I would like 
to keep the feature that data/DSA/list lists the DSA's, and that removing CVE 
from a listing in that file will have it removed from data/CVE/list 
automatically.


cheers,
Thijs
