I guess the data field is accesible somewhere (on server side). Even though LDAP
bug record doesn't reflect this data, SOAP's query results returns
'log_modified' => '1188589143', for intance.

Is there any other access method to the bugs datasource(s) (apart from LDAP and
SOAP API (the only two I know at this moment) I should know about?.

I believe if the data is there, there is (or should be) a way to query it... or
am I wrong about this?.

Please, can you enlight me a bit more about the different available methods to
query BTS I can use to get the fields I need?

Maybe I'm wrong again, but I consider that remote databases are necessary
nowadays to be able to join different data sources as BTS, DebTags, Popcon,
etc... and have a unique source able to return all the available data by a
single query event.

I'm learning a lot with your answers.
Thanks again.

Cheers.
