Future of the project

Not a lot planned really.

Make more easily installable, so can be a component of other projects which want to download listings.
Cut down on dependencies, but avoid wheel reinvention. Difficult.
Lots and lots of DTD changes queued up.
Grabbers for more different countries.
Decent GUI programme picker(s) (tv_choose is quite good but I want to improve mine too)
1.0 should be stable base for other projects (file format and library must be backward compatible from then on)
After 1.0, could split up a bit, but not possible before then.

Also more advanced programme picking:

Choose based on more than just title. Sometimes different things share the same title (Pink Panther).
Work out favourite actors and recommend. I am saving my week's listings now for future grinding through such a script.
'If you liked this, you'll also like...'
Some way to incorporate critics. Maybe a parser for NTK?

The end. But plenty of room for more demos I think.
