I'm not a fan of this being in the cron file to begin with, so would that work, or are there problems with that idea? Wiping the database takes only a short time, no matter what -- and like I said, you can't do it on a live site anyway.Remember.. I wrote this plugin with myself in mind :) It was to speed up the large number of DMOZ imports that I was getting last year, and it certainly did that.
It started off with literally just the 'writing' facility, where it would cut up the data from the content.rdf.u8.gz file, and then import each category that you specified.
As I needed to do more with it, such as setting up crontabs automatically, verifying categories exist before an import, clean out the database (if you want to start from scratch), email notices when the import process has run for each category, and more. A lot of the above features were in there just for me... but I left them in there, just in case someone wanted/needed them in the future :)
