	And how will this affect the mirrors?  Do they have to install the
same software?  Will they get static bug report pages that they update once
a day?
	I have no clue how the mirroring works.

   Collector is based on ZTable, which is commercial. DigiCool announced
they will open ZTable Core sometime in the future, probably Collector will
be open too.
