problems with using feed importer
Hi,
I used feed importer before but somehow I am not able to replicate what I did. I created two nodes, one for the source of the feed and one node to hold the content of the feed. I remember creating a node source and inputting a url link to the feed in one of the options. Then I used feed importer and base on the source node, it pulled in feeds and created the content node.
However, now when i try to replicate the same procedure, I can't find the options to input a url feed in the source node. The option vanished. I have been uninstalling modules so I'm not sure if I disabled the module for it. Does anyone know how I can input the feed url in the source node?

Keeping a library of feed contents
Is it possible to create a library of old feed content without deleting any of them. I want my feeds to always stay on my site and not get deleted by the Feed Aggregator. In admin/content/aggregator/settings, under the title Discard items older than:, there is no option to not discard any feed item. Is it possible to keep all my old feeds after each cron job run at all times?

XPath-based parser for core aggregator
Imagine if the core RSS/ATOM/whatever parser would be robust and solid in Drupal core, even it could serve 3rd party modules like Feeds.
I have a concept of relying on an associative array, full of XPath expressions what a smart piece of code could use directly for building the final $feed object. The high level goal of this new parser would be the following: maintainence on the parser would mean mainly maintaining this array, nothing more.
Also XPath seems to be more future proof solution for parsing compared to what we have in core now.
I have a patch at http://drupal.org/node/1268232 , what's really just a sketch from the concept. It discards some functionality, also it does not include solid namespace handling - what's clearly in my mind for a robust parser.
To save some time for you, here is the "big" associative array from the current patch:
array( 'title' => array( '/rss/channel/title', '/x:feed/x:title', ), 'description' => array( '/rss/channel/description', ), 'link' => array( '/x:feed/x:link/@href', '/rss/channel/link', ), 'items' => array( 'children' => array( '/rss/channel/item', '/x:feed/x:entry', ), 'title' => array( 'title', 'x:title', ), 'description' => array( 'description', 'x:summary', ), 'link' => array( 'link', 'x:link/@href' ), 'author' => array( 'author', 'x:author', ), 'guid' => array( 'id', 'x:id', 'guid', 'link', ), 'timestamp' => array( '#process' => 'strtotime', 'pubDate', 'pubdate', 'issued', 'created', 'modified', 'published', 'updated', ), ), );
- so you can have a wild guess of my idea without taking a look on the code.
If you have any feelings about this, please share here!

Aggregrate Yahoo! Weather RSS
Information on the Yahoo! Weather RSS Feed is available at http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/.
In the text, they describe that we can get current weather by RSS using the following feed syntax:
http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w=2502265
where 2502265 is the location for the weather forecast as a WOEID.
I would like to add feeds like this and display their results in Views. However, while the Yahoo! Weather RSS response has many elements (yweather:location, yweather:condition, etc), they are not available in Views. I am only able to use Aggregator: Title, Aggregator: Body, Aggregator: Timestamp and a few others.
Is there a way to have access to these other elements?
