Hello,

As DHIS 2 becomes increasingly popular, it becomes more and more urgent to
be able to import metadata and data from other systems.

We have had discussions of using a Extract, transfer, load tools (e.g.
Kettle/Pentaho Data Integration) - in which case they probably should be
embedded in some way?

Ola and I just came up with a simple format now which we think could
represent many types of data "out there". That is, people should be guided
in transforming their data into a simple tabular format, which could then be
read by DHIS.

We have updated an existing blueprint:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/dhis2/+spec/import-data

As an alternative approach could be to require people to convert their data
to SDMX or DXF, it would be good to have everyone's thoughts on this.

Knut
