Yes, each action item has a date of creation and a date of last update.
Its content is regularly refreshed as long as the action item persists.

On the tracker side, I only get a count of issues:
https://qa.debian.org/bls/logcheck.txt
I use the first 3 fields as name, errors and warnings.
There's no distinction between release architecture and non-release
architecture.
