Guys, you have to help me figure this out.
What about the other sages out there. Any ideas please?

BTW, AdventNet's QEngine can be used for the testing and regression 
purposes. If someone is willing to share some sweat on it, it will do 
the product a world of automation-good.

Torsten, I think the trac holds what all you ask for in terms of the 
fields that you require. I guess, we can do a hand-holding there for you 
to come to pace with it.
Let me know please.

Fathi, could you tell how we can add custom fields to the trac please?
