Thanks! I found there is http://www.qml2xml.pro/, which is a custom markup
language for quizzes, and from which Moodle XML can be exported.
Unfortunately the tool seems to be online-only, no downloadable version I
could find. And also, the QML format is a bit strange.

I also started exploring the Moodle XML format, but I was happy to discover
Moodle can also import other formats. I think I might stick to GIFT, Aiken
or some other text-based format, since they seem easier to manipulate
(albeit of course less powerful).

My ultimate ideal goal would be to be able to export a whole Org document
into the whole contents of a course, including Books/pages (not sure yet if
Moodle can import Markdown or something else), quizzes, etc. But quizzes
would be a good start :)

I'll keep you posted if I come up with anything.
