James, as for how to fix the issue presently, I just checked and you can indeed override the current exporter in a plugin. The main issue for why you're not seeing a bioghist note in your exports is due to this part of the the core code: <a href="https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/exporters/serializers/eac.rb#L113-L158" id="LPlnk563635">https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/exporters/serializers/eac.rb#L113-L158</a></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
The issue is that the default sub note that ASpace uses when you create a bioghist note is a sub note with a type of "note_text". But that "note_text" type is not one of the sub note options in the exporter, and there's no else clause in the above case statement.
So, you could either add an option for "note_text" to export that data to paragraph tags, or you could add a catch all that would pick up those note_text sub notes. That said, there would be other things ArchivesSpace would need to do to ensure valid EAC
bioghist notes, since right now EAC specifies that an abstract element would have to be the first child element of a biogHist note if it's available. But, the ASpace exporter is just going to put those notes in the order the they're entered.</div>

<p class="x_MsoNormal">Updating the EAC-CPF exporter very substantially is part of the work that’s currently happening for the expansion to the agents module.
