Looking at the spec, current AS->EAD2002 behavior matches the implementation request (encoded language of description is NOT exported to EAD2002; only the free-text language of description is exported). I also note that langusage is optional in EAD2002, and not required by DACS(!).
Proposed Reply for https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-969
We should discuss, but if this were open for a do-over, I would propose that the EAD2002 export behavior of language of description mimic that of language of materials (in short, if a free-text note exists export that, otherwise export the translation of the encoded language as a text strings with the codes in attributes, with some boilerplate prepended. E.g.:
| Code Block |
|---|
<langusage> Finding aid written in: <language langcode="[Language (code value)]" scriptcode="[Script (code value)]">[Language (translation value)]</language></language> |
