 * Version 7.0.7 will now install a new database table as part of the plugins core
   functionality. The table will be named ecsvi_datasources and will manage…well
   sources of data. So if you see that table and your wondering where the hell it
   came from, now you know.
 * This means we’re moving towards allowing .csv files to be used outside of the
   current designated content folder. Oh and it is pretty much required for .xml
   import so that the source can be located on other domains, a common practice 
   with XML.
 * This new feature will not be pressed upon current users too quickly. That means
   despite this post and the table being installed you won’t get benefits from it
   for a while. We want to avoid complications by taking small steps. You may see
   the plugin storing data in the table but the data won’t be used. That will be
   the first phase.
 * I think thats it.
