my thought on OPDSv would be that perhaps libraries should offer their
catalogs of ebooks as opds catalogs -- and 'purchase' in the opds
sense would be
perhaps 'checking out' the ebook? or adding the ebook to one's own
ebook library as a URL -- not as a download?
how do folks see this working in the library context? if at all?
thanks for your ideas!
