I've reset the koan bugs to be cobbler bugs:

bugzilla modify -c cobbler --reset-assignee --comment='koan is a sub-package 
of cobbler' 963962 977070 1021047 824476 868050  788890  540998

I believe Dennis Gilmore is our bugzilla person - perhaps it would be possible 
to remove the koan component at this point.  Not sure.
