Well, not really. It's sounds like a very interesting project and I think it should be publicised more, but it's not really suitable for my case (I think). We use our in-house bug-tracking system and both pre- and post-commit hooks have to interact with that. This does not include only checking if the bug number is correct, but also if the issue has the correct status, if we are committing in the correct branch, etc. I'm sure that could be done with that framework (but please correct me if I'm wrong).
