Since January I have been using the grabber on my live MythTV setup with no
issues.  In general I think it is fairly complete and works well under
normal circumstances.  It is nice getting a few more days of data and
everything is always more up to date without having to re-download
everything.

It could be more robust when unexpected things happens.  I can be a bit of
a perfectionist so I may never think it is ready.

It also seem to be a bit of a memory hog. All of the data is stored in RAM
at once which can be fairly large if you have a lot of channels
configured.  And I am using the perl Storable module to cache the data to
disk which seems to almost double the RAM usage as I think it is trying to
de-duplicate strings and other objects during the store operation.  This is
all probably okay with the amount of RAM most things have today.

There was talk of xmltv switching from CVS to git.  Did this ever happen?
