I'm not sure what Andrew is working on - but I'm not aware of anybody 
doing anything with Scarab. I personally use Scarab to track issues
(for a different project), so I would really like it if it were integrated
with the buglist!!

I first thought it would be easy, since we already support issuezilla,
and scarab is kind of a successor to issuezilla - collab.net who worked
on issuezilla are working on scarab.  However, the XML query URL doesn't
work directly for scarab, so I'm not sure exactly how to pull XML data
out of scarab. If there is such a way, it should be straightforward. I've
seen an "XML export" function within scarab - but it seemed more for data
migration. However, it might be the start of what you need.

So in short - we can definitely use your help, welcome!
