[TYPO3-dev] generic XML feed import

[Luc Muller]

I alreay had this reflection, but for the moment the only result i got 
is to think that an generic XML importer would result in a DB building 
extension.

thus means.

I got this XML tag eg title I need to build a field title in the DB.

by the way it can work with a simple generic XML but would become very 
very complexe when XML is going to be more complex.

So I thought it would be always simpler to work with generic XML parsing 
methods but having specific importer for each XML feed.

But may I am not courageous enough to start a deep look in all the 
possibilites.
