Sounds great!

While testing of all updates in updates-testing is valuable, does anyone
know if there is a way to query critical path updates that do not yet
have proventester feedback?  I'd like to see how much testing is
outstanding and determine whether we are ahead or behind etc...  

I just discovered that it might be possible to use the command-line
bodhi tool to gather this information.

        # bodhi --critpath -r F13
        Getting a list of critical path updates...
        0 pending critical path updates found

This may partially answer my question.  I wonder if such a view could be
available from bodhi-web (e.g.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F13/critpath)?

Thanks,
James
