Eric,
FWIW, an HTTP resolver that could be used with Fedora has been a big topic for Loris recently, and a few of us are trying to spec out what that would look like.

The discussion/proposal is here: https://github.com/pulibrary/loris/issues/98 and spreads to a few other linked issues. I'd be happy to hear what you think.

Subject: [CODE4LIB] iiif compatible servers

Looking to implement a iiif compatible server, primarily for jp2s in fcrepo3.

Just read the 'very large image display?' thread and looking at the http://iiif.io/technical-details.html, it appears options include:

loris: https://github.com/pulibrary/loris
IIP: http://iipimage.sourceforge.net/documentation/server/
djatoka iiif: ( https://github.com/jronallo/djatoka)

The iiif djatoka gem immediately caught my eye as I've implemented djatoka w/ fcrepo3 in a previous project, but am interested if there are any opinions in choosing any one of these over another.

Thanks,
Eric

Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] very large image display?

We previously used the Zoomify Flash applet, but now use Leaflet.js with the Zoomify tileset plugin:

https://github.com/turban/Leaflet.Zoomify

One thing I like about this approach is that it minimizes the amount of Javascript code the clients have to load, since we use Leaflet.js for our maps and it's already loaded.
