This is just what I was looking for: a neat and simple solution to generating a Google sitemap. I tried Xmap first but kept getting permission errors on the installation and no help at all from the Xmap forum. The module functions rather differently to the normal components with which I am more familiar but is just perfect for what I want. I think this is worth a big "Thank you!" to the developer for seeing the need and providing an excellent solution.

Remository
If you're not looking for anything too sophisticated, this component will be ideal. It installs cleanly and works smoothly. Be aware, however, that there is no documentation with the package. The Remository home site has some useful FAQs that you should look at if you're having problems and there are some basic guidelines on setting things up.

The package as it came wasn't quite what I wanted but, after hunting through the code, I was able to customise it to more or less what I'm after. The code itself has some useful comments in it but finding the files you need to amend is not so easy if you're not an experienced user. I also found that no one seems to have cracked the complexities of the user permissions. There are several queries posted on the Forum but not so many answers.

But the bottom line is that this is a useful component if you want a simple, straightforward download facility. If you want more than that, then be prepared to pay for it!
