There's a new version of the import module available for testing. In this implementation both feeds and items are nodes. It is able to
read RSS 0.9x, 1.0 and 2.0 and has support for some DC items, the SY module and the content:encoded stuff. In addition
to that it also makes use of RSS 2.0's guid and comments elemens (and some more). Adding a feed is as simple as
supplying the url and all the other options will be filled in automagically. There's also an option to promote news
items automatically .

It needs (lots of) testing and bugs fixed, while some features still need to be implemented. I need some help of taxonomy
specialists to find a way to set taxonomy terms on items automatically. When a feed is administered you should be able
to specify a set of taxonomy terms for the items.

If you want to test it out on your own installation read the INSTALL file carefully, as there are some
important changes when using the cron.php script.
You can see it in action on my test site.

Hope you like it. Please send feature suggestions, bug fixes, comments, questions etc. to me (breyten@dataloss.nl)
