One of those things that used to work but broke down along the way. I
suspect that there has been a change in the library we use for parsing
these logs and that broke the functionality of importing SDE files.
Our parsing code was written in 2011 and at that time I did test that
the import worked, and now it doesn't. Anyway, I just sent a patch to
fix this and another one that calculates the dive duration as David's
log export from DM5 did not include the duration field.
