Aside from the various guesses at how to push data onto the SOURCEFIELD
array (only Gyepi and Jeffrey have it right :) I advise you to look at
XML::Writer for XML output, instead of XML::Simple. XML::Simple might
be good for a first pass at generating output, but you'll almost
certainly come to want tighter control over how it handles arrays vs.
single items and attributes vs. elements. XML::Writer is a lot nicer in
this respect.
