Nice!

Concerning the config example, the repos must be on a single line (otherwise you get ‘Failed to reach a server: no host given’) and for 0.2, the value for packages is not $1 but *1

I found that it gets confused when a linked package gets a new version and OBS generates a diff for you, as with https://api.opensuse.org/source/YaST:Head/yast2-core?rev=4 . Then osc overview reports the originally linked version even though there is a new one already.

Sounds good. Vintz have developed a similar feature for osc gnome and I have done something similar in osc contrib, because we considered it necessary.

But we both have a server part, which makes a reusing impossible (until OBS will provide some level of support).

BTW: you can use a Marcus's list http://www.suse.de/~meissner/Factory.updated.package as another source.
