Hi Dan,
I will consider this. Currently, I do not have the time to start this
track: I need to get data into the wiki first. As soon as I've tackled
that I might return to your kind request and suggestion.
Anyway, as a technically included user I find importing data still
very cumbersome. Adding data by hand once you have the forms is easier
and allow more people to chip in.
The proposed solutions are either too much geared towards a specific
use (e.g. AcaWiki), have little or no support for non-english
languages, require extensive data massaging like template name and
field mapping.
