Well, there hasn't been too much response for this. I have completed the
work anyway. Maybe it is worth to say, that the package does not show
org-mode bugs only. It could show any bug located on debbugs.gnu.org as
TODO item.

Compared with the first version, this package uses now tags similar to
the proposal by Suvayu. It also shows archived bugs, if desired.

There is a new minor mode org-debbugs-mode, which allows to send control
messages directly to debbugs.gnu.org. This simplifies handling of bugs.

There are also two new commands: `org-debbugs-search' allows full text
search on debbugs.gnu.org. `org-debbugs-bugs' shows bugs according to
their number. Read the Commentary section for details.

If the org-mode maintainers find this package useful, it could be added
to the contrib directory. A respective patch is appended. I'm pretty
sure that org-mode aficionados could improve the handling of TODO items;
I'm rather a rookie wrt org-mode. If there are questions wrt to the
gnus.debbugs.org interface I'll be happy to help.

Best regards, Michael.
