Péter,

It's great to see this expansion of CODE4LIB. It sounds like you had a  
very successful meeting.

Would it be appropriate for the C4L site to link to Péter's group's page?

> Hi!

> I gladly report, that we had the first code4lib.hu codesprint yesterday.
> The purpose was to code with each other, and learn something from
> each other. It was a 3,5 hour session at the National Széchényi Library,
> Budapest. We created a script, which extracts ISBN numbers and book
> cover images from an OAI-PMH data provider, embeded as METS
> records. Hopefuly this code will be part in two or three different library
> or book related services in the next months. We have discussed the
> technical details, and the advantages, and the right problems of uploading
> a local history photo collection to Flickr. Unfortunatelly we didn't
> have time to code the Flickr part.
> There was only a couple of coders, but we had a goot talk, new acquaintances.
> (For those in #code4lib: this time we had no bbq, nor 'slambuc', but lots of
> biscuits and mineral water. ;-)

> If - for whatever reason - you want to follow or join us, see our group page:
> http://groups.google.com/group/ikr-fejlesztok/
>
> The meeting was run as a section of the Library's K2 (library 2.0)
> task force's workshop about the usage of library 2.0 tools.
> http://blog.konyvtar.hu/k2/
>
> Some technical details:
> - we use PHP as the common language
> - for OAI-PMH harvesting we use Omeka's OAI harvester plugin
> - for Flickr communication we planned to use Phlickr, a PHP library
> - the OAI server we harvested run at University of Debrecen, and based
> on DSpace
> - we found a bug in the Ubuntu version of PHP 5.2.10 (SimpleXMLElement have
> a problem with xpath() method) - but we found a workaround as well.

> Regards,
