basically it is just a RSS Grabber that produces some static html  
code and a valid RSS/RDF feed. It would also be great if the Grabber  
could save the Results in a MySQL so we can run a search on it. OR.  
The Grabber only puts the Results into a MySQL, we have some ways to  
Produce the Content from a MySQL.

The old grabber we have is pretty much out if date and can not handle  
all kind of RSS feed we would like to use.

If you want to have a look around to get a daemon/terminal based rss  
grabber running it would be great. You can use any Language you wont,  
we have perl/python/php running on the server - it just should work  
without a GUI.

If your going to Code it by yourself, have a look on python and the  
Feedparser.py: http://feedparser.org/

Thanks for your help!
