Looks very functional so far, great work!  I imported 600+ dives from MacDive, and all duplicate sites were detected properly.  I can edit a site, and the changes show up in all the related dives.  Pretty sweet!

The XML looks very clean and readable as well.  I like that you chose an uuid as identifier, and that you kept the features at a minimum as the first implementation.

The only thing I am trying to find a solution for is the long site names, such as  'Sweden / Värmland / Långban'.  It's generated from the country/location/site name taxonomy in MacDive.  So, an idea on how to solve that:  

How about adding tags to dive sites?  And use that when importing:  add country and location as tags.  So I would end up with 'Långban' as site name, and [Sweden] [Värmland] as tags.  That would be awesome (as someone I know would say ;) ).

Cheers,
Henrik
