I probably could've searched the archives to find this couldn't I. I did notice that the explain response seems to describe a service at alert.ockham.org and not the code4lib mailing list archive. Has anyone in the SRU community talked about using autodiscovery to indicate an explicit link between a web front end and a SRU service? Something like what opensearch [1] uses: <link type="application/opensearchdescription+xml" rel="search" href="opensearch-description.xml" /> In the code4lib search interface it could theoretically look like: <link type="application/sru+xml" rel="search" href="http:// dewey.library.nd.edu/mailing-lists/code4lib/mail/sru/" /> //Ed [1] http://opensearch.a9.com/spec/1.1/description/#autodiscovery
