Speaking as Jorge's previous upstream report monkey, I'd second the
"general love" part. The upstream report is pretty hacky to begin
with, things like sorting don't work properly and there's a ton of
things that we wanted to do but never got the time to look at
properly. A bunch of bugs about the upstream report can be found under
the ubuntu-upstream-relations tag
(https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/malone/+bugs?field.tag=ubuntu-upstream-relations),
though that contains other bugs as well.
