I've been assigned to integrate an existing academic portal in Plone with the OAI-PMH protocol as a data provider. Searching through this list I found the message below, but no response. On 2/4/05, Yuri <yurj@alfa.it> wrote:
There are several (at least two...) products to manage OAI with Zope. Can someone share his experiences in this list? Thanks :)
The products I've found were: - OAI Pack from Infrae http://www.infrae.com/products/oaipack - ZOpenArchives from Pentila http://www.pentila.com/produits/ZOpenArchives Is anyone here using these (or other) products to implement OAI in Zope or Plone? Which is the more actively supported product? Cheers, Luciano

Hi Luciano, The OAI Pack product is actively supported (I don't whether it's 'more'.... :-) We've had contact with the ZOpenArchives guys. AFAIK, the main functional difference is ZOpenArchives provides storage for the 'server' in the ZODB, whereas we have assumed (and built) separate storage servers for the documents, and implemented the harvesting/search in Zope. Currently we're completing a Document Library application, written in Zope3, that supports metadata harvesting with OAI-PMH. This was presented at the PloneConf in Vienna in september. It'll be released in the next month or so. kit -- kit BLAKE Infrae · infrae.com · +31 10 243 7051 Hoevestraat 10 · 3033GC · Rotterdam · The Netherlands

Note that the oaipmh Python module in 2.0 form (pyoai) now has facilities to build OAI-PMH compliant servers, i.e. data providers, not just harvesting. You can find the module here: http://www.infrae.com/download/oaipmh You'd have to do the integration of this into Zope 2 yourself though (unless you hire us :). Regards, Martijn
