xml import - export not working properly

[andreesc15]

Need XML import - export to work properly -- currently is buggy and not importing / exporting the tournament properly.

• can we have public message / organizing team part imported in XML as well?

Might you have stacktraces of the problem(s) you were facing? We'd be better suited to pinpoint those problems if so.

For including public message and organising team, a ticket should be created in the https://github.com/TabbycatDebate/DebateXML repo as it would be modifying the schema.

On export, the exporter fails to set the "style" tag of the tournament, which means that for British Parliamentary, various errors pop up on import because of there being four teams. When I manually add the tag and then try to import, I get this error:

I'm closing this as the two recent commits 1681c04875d0462bac34f25432a986a878e5c1d7 and 509c11f63e52ada63bb7d54b39faffbde52db076 do fix some problems encountered when importing DebateXML, and this ticket seems to be becoming a "catch-all" as there's little detail on what specifically is/was broken.
