Hi Hilton,
It looks like a large proportion of DSpace instances would be excluded if this
proposal were implemented. It seems a bit over the top, I think we may reply
with a comment to that effect.
Cheers, Robin.

Ranking Web of Repositories
The Ranking is also a powerful tool for penalizing bad practices, with especial
emphasis in the awful naming proposals by software developers that ignore
librarian traditions and in many ways are going against intellectual rights of
depositing authors.
We truly believe the lengthy and useless addresses coined for the repository
items have a negative impact in their web visibility and affect the authors
will to deposit as it makes difficult the citation of full texts in future
papers.
