This sounds neat. :-)

I didn't realize Bugzilla had RSS feed support. Currently wikibugs (the
Bugzilla --> IRC bot in #mediawiki) parses mailing list messages (sent to
wikibugs -l). If there's a machine-readable format that can be used, that
would be awfully nice.

This should be investigated at some point. The mailing list parsing is decent,
but still has bugs that would easily be resolved by using a proper input/output
system.
