If these are done in Bb won't there be a problem with portability of
data afterwards, as it won't produce even IMS compliant Content Packages
as far as I know. (if you need or desire it to go out of Bb at any stage.)
Better to use an external content aggregation tool like Reload Editor
(except I can't recall if that would also allow URLs as part of the
package) and create CPs, which are zip files with organised content as
per IMS CP specs?
