Thanks Scott!
(And thanks for all the other hints!)
Yes, the goal is to get the data into tables in a pg database. Having
a CSV file or having the data in pg-tables, both equally solve the
problem.
I like this approach as it does not involve additional tools. I will
have to upgrade to pg 8.4 first, though.
Will this method scale well with XML files of around 1 MB? Import will
have to be done once a weak.
