Is the XML importer the option to use? The recommended one?
I have virtually no experience with XML importer. I think it was created for this purpose yes, but also for matching it with existing data, to avoid duplication.
Another trick, i heard of but never experimented with, would be using the MMBase taglib to import your data. Like for example:
<mm:createnode type="news"> <mm:setfield name="title">Your data you wish to imprt here</mm:setfield> <mm:setfield name="body">More data you wish to import etc.</mm:setfield> </mm:createnode>
etc.
Thus wrapping the data you wish to import inside taglib code in some JSP-files.
