Also, while the forms interface is fairly easy to use, it would be even easier if I could just do a bulk RDF/XML import. Is there a way to do that?

I think Dean's talking about putting information _in_, rather than getting it out.
Ah, so he is! My reading eyes are rather broken.
I've never done RDF import. I wrote some tools which automated the process of import, but they just used standard HTTP post. My interest in OpenGuides is entirely unrelated to its RDF output, largely because I think that RDF is an unusable technology at this point.
If you can write RDF/XML, you can likely write a parser for your data, and once you can write a parser, you can automate the input of data. If you want help doing that, a sample of the data you wish to input would be the first step towards assisting in creating tools that will help pull the data in.
