The primary issue is that I'm using News::Article as my underlying article
representation, for a variety of reasons, which makes it hard to transfer
articles back and forth easily.  The secondary issue is that I just
haven't had time to think about this whole thing in a while and have a lot
of pending work I badly want to get done.

I think the Right Way To Do This is probably going to be to write a simple
conversion routine between the underlying representation model that you're
using and the one that News::Gateway expects, and then most things should
start working.
