I want to export my excel data to ez and I'm about creation of utlity for converting csv file to ez package. Some small questions:

1) is it correct way on the whole?

2) are all xml elements in objects' definition necessary? e.g. in exported package objects are defined in such complicated manner:

<object... ezremote:section_id="5" ezremote:owner_id="14" ezremote:class_id="25" ezremote:published="Tue, 01 Feb 2005 07:51:28 GMT" ezremote:modified="Tue, 01 Feb 2005 08:03:07 GMT" remote_id="af6f3dfe6fc092e12e8a3d0f45da2c9d" class_remote_id="f0c83bf5cdca61f885e89e180f741c71" ezremote:class_identifier="edu_institution">...

I'm going to substitute it by:

<object xmlns:ezremote="http://ez.no/ezobject" ezremote:class_id="$CLASS_ID" ezremote:class_identifier="$CLASS_IDENTIFIER">

Is it correct? Experimentally it will be verified later, but maybe anybody can suggest something about it right now?

1) seems work %]
2) some fields are really essential, but some are not

Later maybe I post my code to "contributions" section. The prog is coded in Perl, tested on Windows, seems work...

Hi Andrei, what you implemented sounds really interesting, it would be useful for some tests I'm doing in this period, exporting and importing data between an excel file and ez publish.
I would be happy to test your application too, if you will post it.
