    53 * Complete the enhancements for WordPress export. Currently, if you have 100 posts translated into 3 languages, you would export all posts once, import that same .xml file into 3 sites and delete the 200 from each site which are not the corresponding language. Then, you would be able to run steps 7 and 8 of the usage instructions above. With an enhanced WordPress export feature built into this plugin you would be able to specify the language for export to filter files. In that same scenario, you would run 3 exports (100 posts each of unique language) and import each language-based export file into the new sites before running the same steps 7 and 8 above.
