[Archivesspace_Users_Group] EAD export issues

[Nathan Stevens]

>From reviewing this message, am I correct to assume you are seeing these
relator issues running the AT migration plugin, and not when you try
importing an EAD?

If you are seeing these errors running the migration plugin can you provide
an AT database dump (you can upload it to Dropbox) so we can replicate on
our end.

Thanks
