Hi,
I have jumped into perl and fiddled around with getfeed code to bring DerStandard.at to work. Although my implementation is quite ugly (hard coded) and I still have some probs concerning charmaps and special characters the result is promising.
I found out that Tommys improvement to define some start- and stoptags in the getfeedrc file would not neccessarely be enough for complexer Web-Services. I would therefore like to discuss the idea of implementing kind of modules (containing perl code) to handle specific formatting of index and content pages.
As I am a Perl newcomer I would not dare to propose how this could be done the best way, so feedback is kindly welcome!
Nevertheless I would be glad to provide my getfeed patch if there is any interest.

Kind regards
Harald
