You probably already knew that you could supply a description and a license using the configuration file. This is an example of a basic extension. What you may not know is that you can point to html files for the content. This is really helpful when you have a ton of text for your description or license. Simply create a folder in your extension named install and create an html file. From there you can just specify the name of the file that you are using for either.

I am in a similar boat...I want a client to be able to update an XML file to add or remove item listings. And I want to display a list of images based on that XML.
And I want to resize them to a given width (ie: 200 pixels wide).
For the life of me I cannot find a good example. (I hate the idea of embedding and re-compiling every update.)
