It is my understanding that content mirroring is a feature designed to work with blogs.  Does anyone know if it also works with forums?  For example, suppose you have a .NET community with forum called "Visual Studio."  Your community members use that form to discuss all things realted to visual studio.  But in addition to that content, you want to inject discussion from a RSS enabled newsgroup, like this:

http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.vstudio.general/feed/rss_v2_0_msgs.xml

So that when new elements are made available from that feed, they show up in your Visual Studio forum as if they were posts made directly in your web site.  Furthermore, as replies to posts are made they would need to recognize the parent/child relationship and be posted accordingly.

Your suggestions are greatly appreciated!
