+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - CVE numbers
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - list of binary packages with sha1sum
+</I>&gt;<i> Is there people that really check them ?
+</I>&gt;<i> ( since there is already gpg and checksum in rpm that can be checked

+</I>
+Most other distributions include this in their advisories. But yes, it's
+not very useful, so we can probably remove the sha1.
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - Mageia Bug #
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - Reference URLs
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - advisory text
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Anything else ?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; - severity
+</I>&gt;<i> Adding severity would requires us to have precise rules about it, and
+</I>&gt;<i> would not mean much, and likely lots of bike shedding about it.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> And also, what is the use precisely ?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; - whether this is a security issue or a non-security bugfix
+</I>&gt;<i> What if there is more than 1 fix ( like a firefox upgrade ) ?
+</I>
+If at least one of them is security, then it's a security update.
