FWIW, at the GNOME level, we were asked by Debian and Gentoo packagers to provide a single file containing the latest versions for all stable/unstable modules. This would make life easier for them since they wouldn't have to crawl the FTP many times.
Also, it'd be possible to push the information to openSUSE when we upload a new tarball on the GNOME FTP.
My scripts read the GNOME RSS feed. Wonder why you do not put it there.
Well, an RSS feed is still the pull model on the openSUSE side. But it works, yes :-) We might want to have a feed with more items, though (you can miss some tarballs on release days if many maintainers upload at the same time). It seems some of the packagers in other distros also like to have the complete current state, and not just updates, that's why such a file would be useful for them. (still the pull model, and not push model, though) Anyway, if you need improvements on the GNOME side for this, I can help with that.
