Help Needed to Scrape a Disaster Recovery Wiki site into RSS



Hi Syndication,

I am working with a list of people that have been putting
together a massive Wiki-based resource site to aid the 
survivors of the WTC disaster. 

They really want to syndicate this into RSS. I am sure
that the Wiki could be modified but time is of the essence
here, so scraping seems like our best bet.

Could someone with some scraping expertise and technology
step in here and help? I've asked them to provide me with
a list of URLs to be scraped - some parts of the site are
text-oriented and not fully amenable to RSS. I should have
this list by sometime early Sunday.

The full site is at:

http://kgate.virtual.net/cgi-bin/wiki.cgi?action=Browse&id=SeptemberDisa
ster

Once we have some feeds going, I will blast these out onto
Newsfeeds, and those of us with news tools can also make an
emergency update.

Thanks!

Jeff;
