I've recently (for something to do) have been developing a web-app to generate xml files for use with xbmc. I'm currently only working on advancedsettings, and I'm not quite finished. It's proving to be a lot of work.
I guess my reason for posting is, is this something people would use? Would you like a site where you can use a friendly gui to set parameters, complete with descriptions of each, and hit a button to download the completed xml file?
If I don't get much of a response I'll probably scratch the project. Anyway, it's good practice for my web development.
Edit: I've finished the functionality for advancedsettings.xml, so it works. Tested on IE8 and Firefox 3.5. It uses javascript. Just keep in mind that at the time of posting this I haven't worked on graphics, very much layout, or parameter descriptions, but it works. Most settings start at default, and most (if not all) numerical values are confined to what xbmc accepts.
