About http://bugs.bugseverywhere.org/, I just pulled three bugs via
xml export/import (the two we just dealt with as well as bea/c3f (cjb)
/ bea/64c (wtk)).  There should be a better way to do this...

It's actually easy to poll for differences:

  $ be --repo http://bugs.bugseverywhere.org/ diff 'HEAD@{3 months ago}'
  New bugs:
    bea/b39:om: created-tags break import-xml
    bea/5a1:om: xml import of new bugs is broken
    bea/c3f:om: Set default user paths according to PEP370
  $ be diff 'HEAD@{3 months ago}'
  New bugs:
    bea/64c:om: Set default user paths according to PEP370
    bea/35a:fm: created-tags break import-xml
    bea/4bc:fm: xml import of new bugs is broken
  Modified bugs:
    bea/773:ft: 1.0
      Changed bug settings:
        status: open -> fixed

It's also easy to import missing bugs:

  $ be --repo http://bugs.bugseverywhere.org/ show --xml /5a1 | be import-xml -

But it's annoying to have to run a diff to check for new activity and
then have the UUIDS change on import/export.  I think we should have a
'--preserve-uuids' option in import-xml that avoids the whole alt-id
business for user-verified XML.  We could also add an email-pinger to
send change notifications, along the lines of be-handle-mail's
subscriber notification.  That way bugs.bugseverywhere.org could email
me directly and we wouldn't have to poll for changes.

Thoughts?
