Tim,

Is there documentation available for the generalized fedora-commons API?

Thanks
Dave

Subject
[CODE4LIB] Fedora-commons repositories






(thought it better to have a subject line)

By way of a response to Etienne's request to hear from other 
fedora-commons 
development, and our own announcement:

The NSDL technical network services group (TNS) has released it's own set 
of tools for
repository management based on a fedora-commons back end.

At http://ncore.nsdl.org/ you can find information about EduPak
(http://ncore.nsdl.org/index.php?menu=services&submenu=services!EduPak)

The EduPak bundle (http://sourceforge.net/projects/nsdl-core/) includes a 
catalog
management and search/discovery tool integrated with a 
fedora-commons-backed repository
along with a generalized fedora-commons API for handling resource 
references and metadata
objects. 

The fedora-commons project has two complete OAI services already, but the 
MOAI service
looks like OAI aggregator heaven.
