For a start one could just use the same DB-tables and structures as the
current EPG/configuraton files are. That way the class writing the files
could be easily inherited with the writing functions overwritten by
functions with MySQL queries. A compiler switch would then select between
the two classes at compile time. Unfortunately I don't have enough C++
skills to do it myself.
