No there is no one size fits all.  I agree there will be different
approaches depending on the size of the data to be imported, the
nature of the data source and the nature of the job (one-off vs
routine data interchange).  For routine interchange then I think we
will have a reasonable solution with the dxf-centric approach.  For
bootstrapping of systems and migration from legacy systems my sense is
that it will almost always be a difficult operation where the more
skills, tools and experience the implementor has at hand the better
off he will be - kettle, sql, xslt, awk .. they will all have their
place.

What is dxp?
