Many thanks for this overview! I found your explanations very clear and helpful, especially to understand the difference between xAPI and CMI5.
I would add that CMI5 also includes a "packaging" feature (to export content in a ZIP file which can be imported into an LMS). This is really important because packaging is not part of xAPI.

Do you know if Articulate plans to implement CMI5 in a near future?
