<p>Hi Scott,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Hm, I see here ( <a title="Ctrl+click or tap to follow link" id="NoLP" href="https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/converters/ead_converter.rb#L83">https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/converters/ead_converter.rb#L83</a>
 ) in the importer code where certain character are being changed to underscores, so it should be pretty easy to change.
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>But, I honestly don't know why this was implemented in the first place... Poking around to see if something would break if there was a "/" in the component id.

<div>I've been alerted to a minor issue from the EAD import:</div>
