I’ve spent some more time on Debian Maintainer Dashboard (DMD), a maintainer/team-centric dashboard relying on Ultimate Debian Database.
Done:
– added tabs (jquery really rocks) — see example
– added a hacking.html file that describes how to setup a development environment
– created a pad (http://debian.titanpad.com/DMD) to store ideas.
TODO:
– recruit contributors ;)
Could I suggest replacing the text entry for the maintainers list, with a drop-down menu of all available addresses from which the user can choose? Some of us, trying to get started as contributors don´t know all the addresses. Alternatively, if this would be too long, a link to a page with a list of all addresses, from which we can copy and paste.
cheers

I believe snapshot.Debian.org does something like that with its postgres
