[Building Sakai] Moodle export/import suitability for Sakai 3

[John Norman]

Several thoughts here. You don't say so, but I hope we are talking  
about Moodle as an export option (alongside IMS Course Cartridge and  
Native). I would hate to think we would loose information transferring  
from one Sakai to another because we use an export format that does  
not contain all of our concepts. Then in contemplating secondary  
formats for interchange with other systems, we need to consider how  
stable/how fast they change and the maintenance burden.

I suspect it would be a lot of work, but it would be great to have a  
comparison that compared Bb export formats with Moodle with CC. I  
wonder if the IMS folk have this..?
