Nice series. One problem with python 2.6 though:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 300, in <module>
    page.write(database=db, views=config['views'])
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 76, in write
    self._write_view(database=database, view=view, stream=stream)
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 93, in _write_view
    threads = self._get_threads(messages=q.search_messages())
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 107, in _get_threads
    running_data=thread.running_data, message=message)
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 207, in _message_display_data
    *args, **kwargs)
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 132, in _message_display_data
    data['message-id-term'] = 'id:"{}"'.format(value)
ValueError: zero length field name in format

Using python 2.6.6

$ python -c 'print "{}".format("foo")'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: zero length field name in format
zsh: exit 1     python -c '"{}".format("foo")'

python -c 'print "{0}".format("foo")'
foo

With python 2.7.x python -c 'print "{}".format("foo")' works OK.

Argh, when I changed that one, next:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 300, in <module>
    page.write(database=db, views=config['views'])
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 76, in write
    self._write_view(database=database, view=view, stream=stream)
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 95, in _write_view
    self._write_threads(threads=threads, stream=stream)
  File "devel/nmbug/nmbug-status", line 197, in _write_threads
    ).format(**message_display_data))
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/codecs.py", line 351, in write
    data, consumed = self.encode(object, self.errors)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u017b' in
  position 176: ordinal not in range(128)

This one is harder...
