Hi,

It'd be swell if there was a simple data feed of package build status information. We are using launchpad to do automated builds, and we'd love to get some feedback as to when the builds are done, if they failed, etc. This would help us to trigger automated testing based on those packages, and keep our developers up to date.
Currently I am doing some (yuck) periodic pulls of the 'all packages' status page, and then looking for items that are not done, and pulling their information locally, and producing an RSS feed internally. I'd love to not do this dirty practice, and instead have launchpad utilize their data store and provide the feed directly.
Is this a possibility? I can provide some sample code to assist should the need arise.

Thanks!
