Downloaded in the July window - now can't upload???

Could we at least share our courses to the commons?
It seems this was disabled. If we could share our courses to the Commons, we would at least have it SOMEWHERE we can access it after the window closes.

Can't export
Like pretty much everyone else - I can't export the generated file, due to the 'download page not available' error. You guys have a problem - understandable - then with ZERO communication, you shut down all of our data and provide an absurdly short window to access it with ZERO communication. Then, a couple months later…
