Alexey,

I placed a copy of the oclc jar onto
http://,maven.dspace.org/release/org/dspace/oclc-harvester2/0.1.12/

It will show up in the maven central repo sometime tomorrow.  Any time
you want to place dependencies under the org.dspace groupId, we can
also publish them for you. For oclc dependencies we have done this in
the past.

I want to talk with you about getting this prototype honed down to
being just an addon module for dspace, can you outline where you've
made changes to the original codebase? If we are just talking a new
crosswalk, that should be something that can be packaged as a maven
project, published to the repository and included into the dspace
"core" dependencies. Are we just talking the following patch?:

https://source.tdl.org/svn/dspace/branches/dspace-1_5_0-with-harvesting/etc/OAI-ORE-harvester-1_5_0.patch

Anyways, yes, this is exciting, we need to get such development
activity more transparent in the community and I would like you to
consider that once we have resolved our current svn chaos, that this
may make an excellent module for dspace.

Mark
