Subject: Import CSV file, remove columns, print table

Hi,
I want to create a list of participants of an event which people can
sign, so that I can record who actually turned up.
From the registration website I can download a CSV file and import it
into and org file:
| ID | Name | Titel / Title | Vorname / First Name | Nachname / Surname | Institution |
| 1 | Alice Apple | Fr./Ms. | Alice | Apple | Universität zum Apfel |
| 2 | Bob Birne | Hr./Mr. | Bob | Birne | Pear University |
| 3 | Carol Carrot | Prof. | Carol | Carrot | University of Veg |
I would like to reduce this to
| ID | Nachname / Surname | Vorname / First Name | Signature |
| 1 | Apple | Alice | |
| 2 | Birne | Bob | |
| 3 | Carrot | Carol | |
and then print it out as a LaTeX table.
I can obviously write a source block of Python or R to do this, but can
I manipulate the table more directly in Org?
Cheers,
Loris
