One thing I noticed when looking at the cumulus file was that the decimal 
separator seemed to be ',' rather than '.', as well as the '-' instead of 
'/'.  Perhaps there should be formatting options in the cumulus file for 
dates like the csv - and what about the numeric decimal formats - maybe 
that should be specifiable in both csv and cumulus imports.

Just thoughts!!
