Hi Andrew,

Not exactly sure what sort of differences you're after...

Do you mean the difference between this:
    http://iipimage.sourceforge.net/documentation/protocol/
(and it's 74 page reference: http://iipimage.sourceforge.net/IIPv105.pdf )

And this:
  http://www-sul.stanford.edu/iiif/image-api/1.1/

?

Rob
