Great module! I use feeds as a means of migrating data from different sources to Drupal. This module saves the roundabout trip from a database to CSV then back again to Drupal database.

Most of my sites are still running Drupal 6, any plans to back-port this module to D6.

Mmm I did find a way of importing nodes from a database table. I reserve judgement on the efficiency of the method. Assuming the external data is in a database table, here is what I did step by step

  1. Created view of external data using data module
  2. Created XML data document page using views_datasource module
  3. Imported data into Drupal nodes using Feeds module and the feeds plugin module feeds_xpathparser
