What is imsattempt.php for?

There is a file mod/quiz/imsattempt.php which says:

// This code has been adapted from mod/quiz/attempt.php
// if called only with parameter = q, it returns an imsmanifest in xml format
// if the results are submitted, it saves the results

Can someone explain to me what this is for?

I can try!

This was part of the qti export routine. AFAIK, it turns out to be for exporting complete quizzes (not categories) - but only as part of their customisations. That export routine was part of the author's highly customised quiz module and as needed quite a lot of 'pruning'. I think I am just going to take that file out, as it doesn't really do anything!
