Muhammad,

[CCing Christopher Baines, who may skip straight to the last 
paragraph because they're probably busy building cool stuff.]

Good luck in your research.

Hm, are you sure that our bug tracker is at all useful here?  I 
doubt it!  There are a relative handful of ‘foo isn't 
reproducible’ bugs but they're the opposite of comprehensive or 
standardised.  There are no categories nor labels nor automated 
closings when an issue is fixed.

I think what you really want is this[0] (source: [1]).

Mouth-watering indeed!

One problem: the Package Reproducibility page is gone :-(  I'm 
surprised: it was still there a few months ago.  Christopher, is 
this deliberate?  If so, is there any way we could help bring it 
back?  Is the historical data safe and is new data still tracked?

Kind regards,

T G-R
