Brilliant! Thanks a lot for that! Just done the change myself and it
works fine.

We are still on 1.3.2 in our live installation, but this was for our
test 1.4.1 one.
And yeah, I had to do the same thing - both the ItemTag.java and the
BitStreamServlet.java was old versions so some manual copy and past was
required.
Depending on when you downloaded the add-on, you may also have found
that some of the entries for the add-on in Messages.properties were
missing? I had the complete version sent from Minho, and they said they
would update the tar-ball on the wiki.
Thanks for your help and have a fab Easter
Kind regards
Bjorn
