Mee too for mantis:
http://wiki.mantisbugtracker.com/doku.php/mantisbt:distributions
the best thing I come to was pointing to the M page of repoview, not
so convenient:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/5/i386/repodata/repoview/M.group.html

I think the first step would be to create a repoview-like script which
should populate a table of:
package | version FCx | version FCy | version FCdevel

each of them probably linked to the corresponding repoview page.
then I am pretty sure it could easily got a place in fedoraproject.org :)
