Indeed I would; first job is to figure out how to create a JIRA...

as for your question, yes, you assume correctly. It's the following simple
model object:

https://github.com/JohannesKlug/hbird/blob/master/src/core/commons/src/main/java/org/hbird/core/commons/tmtcgroups/HummingbirdParameter.java

Which I assume triggers the fromAnyObjectToDBObject method in the
MongoDbBasicConverters class? The qualified name field always contains
periods.
