Re: Integrating Anthill with a Problem Report systyem?

Some of these suggestions were already in Jira but were unscheduled, 
others were not in Jira yet. I didn't completely grasp Marcio's third 
suggestion, so I'll leave it to him to file the issue at 
bugs.urbancode.com.

http://bugs.urbancode.com/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=ANTHILLOS-256
http://bugs.urbancode.com/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=ANTHILLOS-255
http://bugs.urbancode.com/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=ANTHILLOS-110

Feel free to add feature requests and bug reports on the Anthill OS 
section of our Jira instance at http://bugs.urbancode.com . If your see 
a feature request there that you like that hasn't been scheduled, please 
let us know on the mailing lists: [email protected] or 
[email protected] (registration required for each).

Regards,
Eric
