Undefined. I wrote it on work time for my employer's specific
requirements, and have not asked anyone if I can release it publicly.
The code is useful as a starting point for others, but hardcodes a lot
of policy specific to us. I do not consider refactoring bugmap into a
super-duper general-purpose extension a good use of my time, since
doing that would result in a system approximately as flexible as
Python or Mercurial.

Nope, no public repo. However, I've just written a stupid little
shell script to extract the history of bugmap from our internal
build-tools repo. Bundle attached. Make of it what you will. If it
breaks, you get to keep *both* pieces! ;-)
Good luck --
