Hello Gordon and Myo
I and my students have had a similar problem before: a HotPot quiz that works fine on its own, can not be imported by the Hot Pot module.
My solution to this has been to add a different quiz, and then edit that quiz and add the quiz that I wanted to be imported. This has worked the few times that I have had his problem.

Michael,
The MyFiles block is a much needed feature in moodle, and so thought it would be good to install in my moodle for the upcoming academic year, which begins in April in Japan. So, I have been experimenting with the MyFiles 1.5 block, and discovered that, as noted by a number of the postings in this discussion, there are still are a number of bugs in the block. For example, when a teacher (who is also admin) shares a file for the first time, 5 instances of his name appear. When a student shares a file for the first time, 3 instances of her name are shown.
Any way, I am very curious to hear how developments with the block are. Can I expect to be able to incorporate it into my moodle for classes beginning in April?
If you would like more details re the above problems, I'd be glad to post them. Also, I would be happy to test any newer version of the block.
My system: php 4.4.1, MySQL 4.1.13, moodle 1.5.2+

David,
The Essay Question is now a standard feature of the Quiz module in 1.6dev. So, for you to be able to assign essays within quizzes, you'll have to upgrade to 1.6dev, which is available from the download page, last time I checked. However, to quote from that page; "Do not use (1.6dev) for production sites unless you really know what you are doing."
"Also - is there a way to extend the time limit up to 3 hours for a quiz?"
Yes. The max time that can be set for quizzes depends on the length of 'session timeout':

Norfizin,
Yes, there are (other) ways to write formula in moodle. However, not being a maths teacher I am not familiar with the details. However there is a moodle forum called Mathematics Tools. If you ask there, I think you'll get a more informative answer.

Rick,
Perhaps you are confusing two different 'formats'. Have a look at this posting:
http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=36430#170230
So, you can only have one 'question' in a single GIFT item, whereas in the 'Embedded Answers (Cloze)' format you can have many 'questions' in a single item.
"have you discovered if it is possible to give questions names through gift import?"
Yes, it is possible. Have a look at the GIFT format instructions:
http://moodle.org/help.php?module=quiz&file=formatgift.html
to name a question, put :: in front of and :: at the end of the name.
::this is a question name::
Is this a question? {=Yes ~No}
hope this helps
