[Xerte] Xerte upgrade and API

All,

My Academic Development colleague has requested that I upgrade our Xerte Online Toolkits to the latest version as he says it will fix many bugs.

Unfortunately the upgrade isn't that straightforward as the database schema has changed between versions. I hit upon the idea that my colleague and the other users should export their modules from the old version and import them into the new. My colleague can do this for his learning objects but as regards the other users he is not so sure about.

What I require is either an API or a backend export program which would let me export all the learning objects from the back end and then re-import them into the new version. I have seen any documents describing how Xerte Online Toolkits is put together so although I have looked around the backend PHP code it seems non-trivial to write my own.

Has anyone either documented an API, written a backend export/import program, or any other suggestion on how to do the upgrade?

Kevin
