Umh no difference to me unless you change the db schema. Even then, I
will just need to move things around in the query then I am done.

by all means. Parsing an existing XML feed is fairly simple©
Amazing how important and useful are XML feeds to open source projects.
I suspect that many news sites like slashdot generate a huge amount of
traffic from their XML syndication.  Perhaps we might even get some of
the major sites like O'Reilly to use our feeds. Worth a try;)
