The small http://nvd.nist.gov/download/nvdcve-recent.xml file looks
reasonable; it's small, goes back a week or so, and should be easy to
parse.  Unfortunately I've not done XML parsing before so it would
take me a bit of time ti figure something out.

Thanks; I checked it in.  Is there any particular format used for the
cvs commit log?
