i'd like to have access to this: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:REST_API
Hm, isn't JSON-RPC and XML-RPC enough?
istm that those techs were on the way out and bzapi is on the way in. i didnt feel like learning something that would be replaced by a new interface.
well i cant find any info on xmlrpc going away, so i'll roll with that
seems the existing APIs do not provide access to all fields while BzAPI does
Features of Bugzilla 4.4 that might be related: Improved WebServices This release got major improvements in its WebServices interface. Many new methods have been implemented to let third-party applications interact with Bugzilla even more closely. For instance, it is now possible to know what parameters are set to using Bugzilla.parameters. It is now also possible to update tags, products, groups or user accounts using our API. Several existing methods have also been improved to return data which weren't available till now, such as bug and attachment flags using Bug.get, Bug.attachments or Product.get. Users can also get their saved searches and reports using User.get; and much more, see the detailed list[1] below.

i guess i didn't enumerate the exact functionality that i'm looking for. the current version we're running lacks the ability to set KEYWORDS in the initial creation phase: https://github.com/williamh/pybugz/issues/52 you have to create the bug and then modify it after the fact. it's annoying, but i guess manageable: - post the bug assigned to yourself w/no cc - modify the bug: add keywords, re-assign, and add relevant cc
