I don't know what they are doing but XML is an excellent data storage
format. I use it for some stuff I don't need in a relational database, I
can just import the xml into DOMDocument and operate on it that way.
You can probably use the libxml2 facilities of your favorite scripting
language (php,perl,python,ruby) to dump the database into whatever kind of
XML they want.
