I believe the RSS 1.0 proposal should be able (either within a single
file or across an aggregate of channels) to encode nested /
cross-referenced etc sets of channels. Much of this should be do-able
within the basic core; depending on exactly what you're trying to
achieve, there's a possiblitity you'll need additional constructs
provided in an extension module.

Could you send a pointer to some sample data files or detailed examples
so we can all take a look at your use scenario?

thanks,
