Answer 1

I use the TI Object persistence framework (tiopf.com). I wrote the overview at http://tiopf.sourceforge.net/Doc/overview/index.shtml.

It will let you save objects and lists to xml, csv, databases etc. It handles child objects automatically.

If you are interested, use the svn version, not the sourceforge download as it has more features (inc partial D 2009 support).
