Sorry about that. It had slipped my mind that this bug was still unresolved 
and prevented the example from running.

You would also have to invoke start() which might get tricky as it expect a 
valid BundleContext. I have posted a patch to bug 242983 that fixes the NPE 
in the Bugzilla connector. If you update your workspace and apply that patch 
you should be able to run the example.

Please comment on the bug in case you run into other problems when running the 
Bugzilla connector as a standalone application.
