Hi Tim,

it looks like you may be interested in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/build-support/upstream-updater/update-walker.txt,
which appears to do something similar to your project from the quick glance
that I gave it. I believe that update-walker is also what
https://github.com/Phreedom/nixpkgs-monitor (used to be available on
http://monitor.nixos.org/) uses, so I think it would be nice if we could
just document this existing system better.

Regards,

Benno
