I haven't given much thought to the details of your proposal, but a couple suggestions: - This should probably use DMDZ (or is it ZDMD?), or be built on-top of it. - It should probably be possible for the mapping file to be specified as a URL, and there should be a default official URL (at dsource.org or somewhere like that), and a set of official backup mirror URLs (which could be updated whenever the the system connects to the official URL).
