XML feeds for item information

Some time ago in
Under Development
there was on todo list "XML feeds for item information". Now there isn't.
What happened to it? Was it dropped or just postponed? What is your policy on data feeding/exports from Wowhead?

Skosiris' title is "Undocumented Feature Author" for a reason. :)

The reason why the XML feeds didn't go into widespread public release is because we're still futzing with them. A lot of changes and improvements still have yet to be made, so be wary creating any application that depends on the Wowhead XML feed for data.

Any Updates on this?
I am working on building items for a mod and i want to update the items before each publish. I have already setup for wowarmory using simplexml_load_file, and i have everything except for stacksize( which i grabbed on allakhazam using on-the-fly xml loading based on id) now i need to build who sells what and whats the stack-per-click from the vendor (i.e. vials are sold in lots of 5 where wood is sold individually) and i need to find out if its unlimited or in what quantities the vendor sells (i.e. strange dust is sold in limited lots of 4 from some enchanting good vendors)
i see this data in your related tables but not in the &xml files, anyway you can expose this data or point me in the direction of where i can grab this data i require?

Sorry for the delay here. We do have plans to expand our XML feeds, but it's going to be a little while. There are a lot of other features in the pipeline before we get there.

The simple answer is "no". Not yet. :)

We have a plan for this, but it's been pushed back behind profiler stuff—which has a nasty tendency to take a LONG time. >.<

... It looked almost done last time I looked at your profile Malgayne XD

I'm glad you like it. :P But there's a lot of server stuff going on right now that needs to be tweaked.
A beautiful profiler system isn't much use if our servers explode as soon as people start using it! :P
