I was wondering if we might inject url's for packages and stacks into the manifest.xml/stack.xml files like we do for a package's home page. For example,

<tracker>https://github.com/stonier/zeroconf_implementations/issues?milestone=6&state=open</tracker>

Ostensibly, this can usually be found from the home page url, but sometimes its not there, or it just takes time to track down. It's also informally pasted on alot of wiki pages, which does work. However, if it is formally embedded into the build system you could automate retrieval for the ros wiki pages (insert into 'Package Links') and other tools could find a use for it then too. This might help alleviate the problems people were having finding the correct issue tracker to report to that was recently discussed.

Might also want to differentiate from a browse issues link and a report issue link which would conveniently fill in alot of the blanks with correct arguments.

Daniel.

PS If it did go into a roswiki "Package Links" section for a package and the tag wasn't present in the manifest, then it'd be good to highlight it as a missing link to act as a gentle prod to developers that this link is important.
