The security team uses (or at least has used in the past) flags on Gentoo Bugzilla. > - Can certain flag states be required when searching? It looks like you need to use the "Advanced Searching Using Boolean Charts" section on the search page - you can select "Flag", "is equal to", and type the flag name/state, for example "Assigned_To?" for one of the above-mentioned security flags. Note that the "normal" search fields still apply, so you need to deselect all the options in the "Status" list before that particular example will produce any results. > - Can we get their current value out using ctype=rdf output I don't think you can with the RDF, but the "XML" button on the search results page includes the flags (and a whole lot of other information), so if you're going to rewrite the bugday software anyway you could consider using that instead, if it would give sufficient benefit. It seems that if you're requesting it programmatically you'd have to do the search, get the bug IDs and explicitly pass them to the XML generator, though, which makes things a little more awkward.
