- the ability to delete a question allowing for better question pool management
- more flexible, multi-level question pool design
- future potential for sharing question pools via an export/import or access management process
- all question types, except for the 2% calculated types, will migrate

Design
The question pool /collection export process and collection export processes will be made available for each individual with access to MyUCDavis cms and content in his/her question pool. The export function will check that questions or collections are available, respectively, before it is available on the screen.
The migration path will exist of a function in Quiz Builder to download/export a single xml and/or a zip file containing question media. The process will mirror the existing Export Quiz function by opening up a new window with export information and a description of how to export from Quiz Builder and import into Samigo. Faculty and/or staff can then import the xml file in Samigo's pending Import Pool function or copy the zip file media to their Sakai course website via WebDav.
Desired features of a migration tool are:
- Faculty, staff and TAs can export and import questions by question pools or collections
- The process closely models existing processes, providing for maximum ease of use.
