Hey Angus,

Was a bit busy so I've just caught up on this. The MAF format is open so 
you don't actually need MAF to create maff files. If you export a tree 
in scrapbook, you should replace the ../data references with data and 
copy the data folder to the tree folder so that the references work 
again. Copy the tree folder somewhere and rename it to a numbered folder 
(001 for example). Add an edited index.rdf (based on an index.rdf which 
is generated when you save any page as a maff), zip the thing together, 
rename the extension to maff and viola, a MAF archive of scrapbook pages.
    If you want to have each individual page available in the MAF browse 
window when you open the archive, that's a bit of a different approach. 
The easiest way is to go to each page you want to save in the archive 
using scrapbook (open them in tabs) and then save all tabs in an 
archive. You'll lose the original URL but everything else should be fine.

Regards,
Christopher.
