Jacopo Cappellato commented on OFBIZ-5410:
------------------------------------------
Just to give you an idea of what I meant with "configuration by convention" in this context, here is an example:
from OFBiz you can export the data from an entity as CSV; by default the system will create a CSV file name like <entity_name>_<timestamp>.csv (for example Product_20131129-1350.csv) containing field names in the first row
The import mechanism could be able to read a file in the same format and import it without the need of a schema definition.
