I just discovered this thread at the bottom of my inbox - sorry I'm only

This is somewhat mysterious to me as well, though I have some guesses based
on looking through their config on betalabs. Let me know if you're still
baffled and we can try to piece it together. Also, Diederik wrote this
functionality so I'm sure he can also provide an answer :)

I whipped this script together to retroactively cope with a huge backlog of
stale bugs in the Mobile Mingle project. I used it once, but can imagine it
may have use for someone in the future. It could use some refactoring
though.

This I don't really know anything about. This might be something good to
follow up with Coren about.

I've scratched my head about this a bit and haven't come up with anything
great. Probably the easiest thing to do would be to set up a fake project
for testing against in Mingle and same for Bugzila. Andre, is this
something we could do in Bugzilla without much controversy?
