Thanks, Brad. Todo list +1.

We (Dartmouth) have a lot of *extremely* local names that may or may not ever make it into a collective db. Even if they did, that seems to be pretty far in the future, so I for one would definitely vote for including this - perhaps as an option in the export if its not the local practice to include the bioghist at a particular institution.

There are no plans to do that, Joshua.

Do folks think that would a good feature?  Do folks foresee any problems in doing so, now or in the future when agent records might be pulled from a national authority database?

Hi all-

Just wondering if anyone knows if there are any plans to include bioghist statements from related agents in EAD exports? The only mention I've seen is from 2013 (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/archivesspace/Vwsh6DGUs0M/XjKpJ3QZw-EJ).

We're doing some customization of the export for our instance, so just wondering if I'll need to add this to my todo list.

Thanks!
Joshua
