The great part about having an easy-to-understand file format is that writing import scripts should be fairly easy. I'd like to see a simple way to display and run these scripts in the app (if possible), though that probably can't happen for 1.0. A directory on GitHub or elsewhere of scripts would still be helpful. A single import script could be written for Jekyll blogs, as they are similar to Tribo in file layout. If you can import from Jekyll, then it becomes possible to import from the long list of platforms they have written import scripts for (albeit in a two-step process).
Exporting isn't extremely important (because the file format is so easy), but supporting whatever the general standard is might be a good idea. I seem to remember Movable Type's export/import format being relatively simple XML and being widely supported, so supporting that would be good. I don't want anyone to feel locked-in to Tribo: that's against the spirit of the app.
