All we need to do is to keep the articles in a way
that ensures they aren't inherantly categorised, i.e.
the categories can be easily changed. Another good
reason to keep articles in a database like mySQL, so
you could just alter the "category" field quickly,
rather than going through every XML file individually
changing them (80 days later...).
