[Dspace-general] Dspace Output from the OpenDOAR Policy Tool?

[Millington Peter]

Hi,

OpenDOAR recently released a Policy Tool to promote good practice by
helping repository administrators formulate and/or present their
repository's policies. It provides a simple series of check boxes and
pick lists for all the key policy options, which can be very quickly
selected. The tool and further information are available at:
http://opendoar.org/tools/en/policies.php

Output options include HTML source code and plain text for copying into
web pages and documents. We also have option to output source code for
GNU Eprints OAI configuration files - which include policy data in their
OAI-PMH 'Identify' output - e.g.
http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/perl/oai2?verb=Identify

We have received a request to do something similar for DSpace. We could
do with some help on the DSpace technicalities. Can policy information
be included in DSpace OAI-PMH output? Can someone provide me with an
example of the source code that would be required?

Thanks
