That would be great.

The code is coming along quite well, and so we should be able to offer
some import functionality in 0.18.

The things that are lacking are the UI, and decisions on tags and things
like that. They are easy to change, but I would like to try and get them
right first time.

However I can currently pull in all the versions of a package on
snapshot.d.n and create a branch out of them. It seems to work quite
well. I think there should be a --snapshot option to the import-dsc
command that will supplement all of the dscs you provide with all of the
ones on snapshot.d.n.

Is there a Ubuntu service like this that I can add support for, or any
others that you know about?

Thanks,

James
