Hi Stephen,

I know nothing about Torque, but MUNGE is mentioned in the known
issues section for Cream:
http://wiki.italiangrid.org/twiki/bin/view/CREAM/KnownIssues

(from
http://www.eu-emi.eu/kebnekaise-products
-> CREAM -> http://www.eu-emi.eu/kebnekaise-products/-/asset_publisher/4BKc/content/cream-1
-> Known Issues)

Cheers,
Daniela
