 The [http://eden.sahanafoundation.org/wiki/Event/2014/IOTX/cap-codefest-2014 CAP Code-fest], in Sri Lanka, part of the Indian Ocean Tsunami + 10 year anniversary commemoration events. One key activity in the CAP Code-fest will require a tool such as the Crisis Map. The intent is to provide other CAP message publishers to test their feeds by emulating an Alerthub. The Crisis Map will, simply parse the CAP XML to extract the necessary and sufficient information. Thereafter, style the display on the Crisis Map.
+
+Receommended apprach
+* use the msg_rss_channel resource
+* schedule a Poll of these channels (e.g. like in NYC Prepared)
+* write a Parser (again NYC Prepared has a Parser for the incoming RSS feed, although that converts msg_rss posts to
+cms_post resources)
+* parse the data into a resource to configure onto the map
+* have a Folder called 'Alerts' & then each RSS feed would be a separate layer within
+that folder
+* the resource could be simple cms_post of type 'Alert' (which is what
+TL DRMP uses)
+* [optional] create a new event_alert resource (this is planned at some point & can then have an integration built into CAP)
