In order to prevent having more settings that a staff member may not
know how best to choose, it would be best if we archive both the Leap2A
and the HTML export. Then the portfolio can be imported into Mahara
easily but at the same time it would be available as HTML for long-term
storage without having to make an either or decision on the part of the
group admin.
** Summary changed:

Title:
Archive submissions in both Leap2A and HTML
Status in Mahara:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In Mahara 1.10 the experimental feature of archiving of submissions
was implemented. Currently, an archive is always a Leap2A file. The
idea behind it was that the portfolio can be imported back into Mahara
later on for users to continue working on it.
Shane Nuessler mentioned that he has problems importing a Leap2A file
from an older version into a newer version of Mahara. That's another
issue to look into, but shows that Leap2A may not be the best format
to have for longevity. HTML files can be opened by any browser and
thus are more independent of the current Mahara site being used.
So it really depends on what you want to do with the archived
submissions: Do you want to keep it as a record for a long time or do
you want students to be able to import it back into their portfolios
if needed. Thus, it would be good if the group admin could decide to
either archive in HTML or in Leap2A.
