Uhm, I do not know much of these things, so I need a bit of briefing. What are these EAL things? Who does them? If there is some authority making them, then they can publish a tag source and vocabulary snippet like (omitting descriptions and spaces between records for brevity): Facet: audited Tag: audited::eal Tag: audited::eal:0 Tag: audited::eal:1 Tag: audited::eal:2 Tag: audited::eal:3 Tag: audited::eal:4 Tag: audited::eal:5 Tag: audited::eal:6 And then every time they audit a package they can add that to the tags: foobar: audited::eal:3 But then there are other issues like 'date of checking', 'version checked', 'who checked' and so on. I don't know if debtags is the right way to implement this, really. Maybe there should be a more complete database, and debtags could provide a limited view of it, like "All EAL4 packages audited less than 6 months ago get "audited::eal4". And then, debtags still doesn't track versions. No, probably Debtags isn't the right way of doing this. Not now nor anytime soon, I guess.
