Hi Barbara. We have the importer finished, and it’s currently in beta stages. If you’d be interested in testing it / providing some feedback, I’d be happy to give you a copy. Shoot me an email (rob at tri.be) if you want to proceed down that route.
We have had a few folks bring up the idea of an RSS-based importer, and we’ve kicked the idea around. Some advanced importers may come down the road but given the complexity of building them, we have nothing along those lines on the immediate roadmap.
Hope that helps and let me know if you need anything else.
