/**
 * Item exporter to create simple AIPs for DSpace content. Currently exports
 * individual items, or entire collections. For instructions on use, see
 * printUsage() method.
 * <P>
 * ItemExport creates the simple AIP package that the importer also uses. It
 * consists of:
 * <P>
 * /exportdir/42/ (one directory per item) / dublin_core.xml - qualified dublin
 * core in RDF schema / contents - text file, listing one file per line / file1
 * - files contained in the item / file2 / ...
 * <P>
 * issues -doesn't handle special characters in metadata (needs to turn &'s into
 * &amp;, etc.)
 * <P>
 * Modified by David Little, UCSD Libraries 12/21/04 to allow the registration
 * of files (bitstreams) into DSpace.
