Abstract
The present invention is directed to methods and systems of distributing information in a computer network related to a report a software anomaly that includes receiving information concerning the reported software anomaly (RSA); identifying a problematic functional characteristic included in the RSA; ascertaining from a plurality of computer-readable addresses a sub-group of the computer-readable addresses that correspond to parties with information corresponding to the problematic functional characteristic; storing on the computer network an investigation record having associated therewith data corresponding to the RSA; and transmitting to the sub-group a message perceivable by the parties indicating a location on the computer network of the investigation record.
