Not tested, but maybe something like:
from gluon.dal import Rows, Row
def rowsWithoutDB():
auth=HTTPBasicAuth('username', 'password')
r = requests.get("http://myURL/projects.xml";, auth=auth)
projects = BeautifulStoneSoup(r.content)
records = [Row(dict(redmine=str(project.contents[3].text)))
for project in projects.findAll('project')]
rows = Rows(colnames=['redmine'], records=records)
return dict(rows=rows)
