Hi Raphael and Lucas,

(CC'ing my mentors, Santiago and Emmanuel, for visibility)

Thank you both for these pointers! I wasn't aware that vcswatch and UDD
were already aggregating Salsa CI results to this extent.

Integrating this data into Distro Tracker is exactly what I had in mind for
making CI status more visible to maintainers. I will look into how Distro
Tracker currently consumes vcswatch data and see how I can leverage that
existing pipeline during the *Community Bonding phase (Weeks 1-3)* of my
project.

This gives me a much clearer path for the 'Integration' phase of my GSoC
proposal.
Thanks again for the technical steer!
