I have attached a ruby program built to get the xml data out of files
and display the text back to me on the screen. This program was built
from a few different sources, as I'm still new with the Ruby language.
But I have monkeyed around with it enough and have got it working how I
want it.

What I'm trying to do is get this information into a database so I can
search it using a web interface (through Rails of course).

Here is a sample of the data that is spit out to the screen when I run
the program:

----

//dc5/IP Office Calls/38/73/387398.xml
<starttime>2009-05-05 15:28:47:000 -0600</starttime>

<endtime>2009-05-05 15:32:50:000 -0600</endtime>

<calldirection>Incoming</calldirection>

<filename>387398.wav</filename>

<recordingowner>5297</recordingowner>

<party id="1">
<number>5557915555</number>
<name/>
</party>

<party id="2">
<number>5297</number>
<name>FredJones</name>
</party>

----

What is the best way to go about getting this info loaded into a
database? Should I created the table and fields first and then put all
of the info in a yaml file and seed the database (I might have some
questions on how to do that)? New xml files are getting dumped to these
folders all the time, so I'm looking for a nice way to get this info
into the database without too much hassle.

I'm not sure how to make this data available to rails. Any help on this
--gems that could do it, articles describing what I need (I've googled
this subject extensively), or any hints, tips, etc... -- would be
GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
