I didn't look at that in any technical detail but conceptually it seems
kinda wrong to me. The problem with using any existing system is that
all existing systems are *for* something. Bodhi is for dealing with
updates. There's no reason why Bodhi would track, for instance, whether
34 is under a string freeze, right? Because Bodhi doesn't have anything
to do with translations. There are a zillion other 'states' that it
would be useful to have info on which aren't relevant to any *one*
existing system, and that's why to me it makes sense to have a separate
thing for that.
I was wondering about the 4 Needs bullet points in your original email which could be in Bodhi but yes if we want to add more and more info a seperate app makes sense :-)
