       rep_platform

BUGS, IMPROVEMENTS
       There may well be bugs in this module.  Using it as I have, I just have not run into any.  In addition, this module does not support ALL of
       Bugzilla's features.  I will consider any patches or improvements, just send me an email at the address listed below.
