It wasn't clear what part of the specification actually enabled you to do that. [Honestly, it's still not clear, because the specification isn't particularly well organized, nor does it have a very logical layout that.] Furthermore, we won't be supporting submitting or modifying bugs via any non-email API.

Unfortuatly, OSLC-CM doesn't appear anywhere near complete enough to handle the reports that reportbug, bts, et al. already deal with.
