We might be able to come up with a syntax in the SCM commit message
that would allow to indicate the defect tracking back-end or repository
to use.

But maybe this not how scmbug is supposed to work today. It
would be nice if Kristis or someone else could comment on this.

No, there is no need to have access to the DB. The "Command" object, which
is part of Quality Center OTA API allows you to execute simple SQL queries
like this, through OLE.
To check that a particular field (memo field in QC - like 'BG_DEV_COMMENTS')
has been updated, just add
AND AP_FIELD_NAME = 'BG_DEV_COMMENTS'
to the query I provided earlier.

I'm not far enough to check what could be done for VDD - I need to get the
basics right first. My prototype install is still in progress.
