I was planning on tracking you down on ICQ or something this weekend. Glad you're around. What I think has to happen is somebody with a VOICE to show the sponsors its worth the 15 minutes to code a simple PHP script that'll spit this output out. I believe that when I can get a solid base together it will help me have a louder voice. Your standard has been sitting there basically and STXT also put one together.
Nubiles CSV export is nice but XML is where its at since CSV is well.... not clean at all!
I have been MANUALLY processing feeds from quite a few different sponsors and putting them into a format I can use. One of the things that piss me off about the TEVS import tools is they don't use the categories provided by the sponsor. Most sponsors keep these feeds completely in the members area which will make it a bitch since I have to manually go in every so often to update the feed.
Shit even if they could set me up with a password protected directory with this simple XML dump I can use CURL to login and if like only I have that login then they still keep these lists out of public consumption.
