Would of course be interesting to map fields to atom entries - I suppose you could use fields that have the same names such as title, subtitle, id, updated - but there are hierarchical elements: link, subelements inside an entry... that would require multiple datasets in FPC (something like the ADO.Net dataset concept that includes the possibility of multiple tables, including parent/child relationships... Scary. Just to make sure I understand correctly - I'm still a Lazarus newbie - there isn't support for such a parent/child tables kind of dataset (group) in FPC/Lazarus/Delphi, is there? (I did see an ftDataSet field type so maybe that could be a clue?)
