As a side note, I have to point out that the Fedora badge infrastructure is based on the fedmsg system, which means that we could probably leverage that to get something working quickly. That said, I haven't touched to fedmsg in a year, nor have I actually looked at the code for the badge thingy. Maybe Nicolas (Cc-ed) knows more about it ?
