Hi Jonathan,

However, are there any people in the Gemini community currently:

* Absorbing a lot of XML data in order to generate .gmi content?

* Grapping .gmi content and extracting it into XML.

Amfora [1] uses XBEL to store bookmarks but that's where its usage of XML ends as far as I know. Not sure whether this is what you're looking for though.

I would assert that migrating data from HTML centric bookmarking to

Gemini centric bookmarking would be a win.

Using gemtext to store bookmarks in amfora was one of the proposals but XBEL seemed like a better fit for structured data [2].
