I am trying to set up an auction website of my own using the e-commerce module and need to daily import (via cron) ~15 objects to come on display in the upcoming section.

I am planning to use the node-import module for the daily import but face 2 major roadblocks:
1. No CCK support for Drupal 6 version of Node import
2. No image uploads possible

I unfortunately cannot downgrade to Drupal 5 and have set myself the task of contributing to this module to support both these features. The only issue is that I am relatively new to PHP and Drupal module development and would like some support from the community to do this.

Do we have some volunteers who can help out here in giving me a few pointers?

Thanks for wonderful module!

It helped me a lot on D5. I wish I would be a good enough programmer to help with update... but my passion is themes, not modules. So far D6 dev stage is amazing though.

Any ETA on importing at least basic CCK fields maybe? Please don't consider me to be rude, just try to plan some projects.

If you download the latest DEV snapshot there is support for CCK, and I have used it successfully a few times.
